a thought: if you are trying to get max turns per inch, there is a
technique
used for winding power transformers using rectangular wire - perhaps
this same
approach could be used for a tesla coil - it would take a special
fixture to
feed the wire edgewise onto the coil form and it would take careful
anealing
of the copper first, but it ought to work

Barry, you might have not have received the entire message.
The four layer secondary works very well. The advantage is high
inductance along with large equivalent wire gauge on a short, small
diameter coil form. The two layer resonator worked better than a
single layer coil also.
