Flat Coil Concept



Original poster: "Cory Roussel by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <imcuddlycory-at-yahoo-dot-com>

Hello all,

Despite my activity and intrest in Tesla Coiling i hav
enever actually built a coil, or even seen one in
person.  I am constantly revisiting basic underlying
concepts behind tesla coiling, because i have never
had any formal education on it, like a book or
tutorial   The concept of a flat tesla coil seems like
a
good idea...  Any good sites that explain flat coils
in further detail?? my main barrier from building a TC
is just the HV Transformer...  I have no place to get
a neon around here, anyone have an nst that hasnt been
fixed that i can depot and repot to start coiling? 
Anyways, in a pancake coil wouldent it be best to wind
the wire into a spiral with the insulation on the top
and bottom fo the wire, instead of with a big roll of
tape around the wire??  Also, Is there really any
special frequency that tesla coils operate best at or
is it just that 200khz is a nice frequency to transfer
energy to the secondary???

thanks
