Re: PVC Drying

[Megavolt121-at-aol-dot-com (by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-uswest-dot-net>)]

For my last coil, i just cut the PVC, Washed it and sanded off theimpurities 
and washed it again. than i just dried it w/ a towl and set it down for a 
day.(i think i was looking for some end caps during that time/going to run 
errands). The next day i just wound the coil. At the SoCal teslathon, i ran 
this coil and i didn't have any problems.
