[TCML] Chris Bohrs' RF burn

Only negative aspect I could find, I got myself a nasty RF burn.
No, I did not try to touch the spark or something like this. I just
held another secondary coil from another projekt in my hands while
the VTTC was running, and suddenly my finger hurt and it smelled
very unpleasant.... beginners mistake, could have foreseen that...

I wouldn't call this a beginners mistake.
I've never heard of someone getting an rf burn from holding another secondary, but then, it's not a common situation. Was the secondary completely unconnected to anything else (sort of say a small secondary coil)?
