Is there any mileage in making a homebrew glitch resistor for use in series
with the B+ using Nicrome wire on a 1 inch diameter ceramic former. It seems
to me that it should be fairly easy to make one with the necessary
resistance,current and voltage breakdown characteristics.

Has anyone done it? The commercial equivalents are really expensive here in
the UK and we seem to see very few surplus nowadays.
