Does this mean that if you were to build a doubler on something else like an 
NST rewound for lower voltage at higher current the cap size should be close 
to what would be mains resonant for the supply? I don't really plan on making 
anything out of it but if I can't bring back my dead NST's by unpotting I 
think it would be a lot less of a pain to wind a single secondary of larger 
wire with less turns on a core than to  wind tons of layers and turns of that 
hair thin stuff.
