A couple of nice edm wire images I identified:
Tight trap, mockup

Group member Simon Webster has been designing a new linear ion trap to replace an old experiment. This version characteristics a brass mounting structure instead of ceramic, which won’t work at all, but can survive different forms of abuse: dropping, prodding with metal tools, and becoming used as a jig for bending and assembling wires to be used as compensation electrodes.
Parts for the actual trap are noticed here. A closeup of the trapping area is right here.
The parts have been created by Simon Moulder and the rest of the Motorcycle club at the Clarendon workshop utilizing wire-erosion EDM. The blades and endcaps are stainless steel, the insulators are Macor ceramic.
