It doesn't seem realistic to me either, that's why it tripped me up so much. 
Think of all the things that use magnet wire, how can it possibly be 
regulated? Radio$hack is still carrying it, so I don't know what to think. 
I'm hoping someone on the list will know more.

I contacted SuperiorEssex Wire and Cable today about the donation of the 
wire for the next 2 coils, and possibly a long-term corporate sponsorship 
for the Group, they made no mention of it, and I asked for a LOT of cable (2 
spools of 16 at 5fFt and 2 spools of 12 at 10kFt each).

I also got 20' of 12" pipe donated today :) We're gonna wind both coils 
BEFORE we cut the pipe into sections, that way each secondary is an EXACT 
duplicate.
