I have seen many many posts regarding different types of spark gaps and
the various materials used, but I have not yet seen any referrences to
basic "how-to" info on building a rotary gap.  I would like to better
understand how they work and how they are built, from the selection of
the motor and other materials, to correctly timing and gapping them.  Can
anyone tell me where I can get such detailed info for a beginner such as
myself?  Any books, links or other sources you can provide will be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Ron
