We should all just be thankful that the title of this thread is "nst shock"
rather than "unballasted mot shock" or "pole-pig shock" etc. In other words,
NSTs can kill, hurt, burn, etc. But pole pigs, mots, x-ray trannies, etc will
cook, fry, broil, roast and toast. My recomendation is be extrememly careful
with any HV supply whether it be an ignition coil or a pole pig. Your first
mistake could be your last. Just my $.02.

Greetings Frank

Your experience is a worry. I'm not sure why you didn't get a most severe
shock possibly you held the terminal so tightly that the NST voltage was
reduced to a low value.

I'd suggest you carefully consider if your ready to be playing with this
stuff, if this had been a grunty supply you would almost certainly be dead.
At the very least I hope you review your safety processes
