ABS pipe is black because it has a high carbon content. This property will
make it more conductor than insulator at high voltages. PVC is lossy, but it
will work much better than ABS. Visit a nearby construction site and you can
probably get a 6ft. long piece of 6" or 8" green PVC for free just by
asking.

Keep on Coilin'

	I wound my secondary on 3" diameter Black ABS pipe. A week later i
read 
	about how you are supposed to cover everything with poly. Especially
the 
	secondary before you wind it. Will this affect my coil's performance
much? 
	What is the difference (other than cost) between ABS and PVC pipe.
Which one 
	is better?
	*HELP*                                            Up here in Canada,
