Sorry to be the carrier of bad news but if you only have two weeks left --
you're in trouble!! Gathering the necessary parts at reasonable prices and
completing even a small system usually requires 4-6 weeks -- and that's if
you are fast!!
I can provide you with a "Guide to a Small Tesla Oscillator" if you send me
a 9 1/2 x 11 inch self-addressed stamped mailing envelope with $3.00
affixed postage for priority mail. Send to Resonance Research, 10700 N La
Reserve Dr, Bldg 5103, Tucson, AZ 85737.
This will provide all the necessary data to get a small coil up and running
with a good 12-18 inch spark. In the mean time start hunting for a 12 kV,
30 ma neon sign xmfr, a .005 MFD cap rated 20 kV, and a coilform measuring
4-6 inch in dia (cardboard tube will work).
