two comments on those stick down cable tie thingies -
1. the glue will fail eventually - I suspect that near a tesla coil the
UV and
ozone will make it sooner.
2. if there is much heat or stress, the foam rubber can fail too.
my solution to this was to use acrylic spacers between the turns and
glue them
with solvent type adhesive to an acrylic base plate. We shall
(eventually)
see if this was a good idea or not

Winding a primary this morning I used some small square fasteners you
peel
and stick down an the other side is slotted for a cable tie. It elevates
the
coil slightly off the base and allows uniform spacing, no need to drill
holes
for cable ties with these. I found them in an electronics shop with the
cable
ties, makes a nice mounting system for the primary coil. Stephen
