Re: Bleed resistors



Original poster: "Richard Modistach" <hambone-at-dodo-dot-com.au> 

being about a new as one can get to the tesla list and coiling,
from what i've read and seen on various sites bleeders are
pretty much standard kit with mmc's and with the cost being so
insignificant(relativly speaking) it sound like a good idea.
just saves having to sourse something from somewhere else.
not that it matters much to me here in aus.
do you guys do copper pipe, magnet wire, pvc, ect,ect.
just a thought.
