Actually no, wire isn't cheap. at least not for me. Time isn't cheap either. I'm getting a grade on this Tesla coil. If i finish, it's an A. If I don't, it's a 0. I've o nly got till the end of the semester. 8^0

Tesla secondary windings are always (with a very few exeptions) a
SINGLE layer of coil over a form. Your winding starts at one end, and
ends once it reaches the other end.  You dont go back and wind back
over the first layer of wire.

If you did wind your coil in several layers, you will simply have to
unwind these and make a single neat layer.

Dont get too bummed out, wire is pretty cheap ;-).
