I don't know exactly how you made your primary support but it sounds
similar to mine.  You need to add a thin strip of Lexan or G10 on top of
your supports.  To hold the strips down, I drilled and tapped holes into
the strips and supports and used nylon screws.  The works are
illustrated on my web site at:

Hello group,

I needed to ask you how to hold down the turns of copper tubing.  I've
made
8 supports with slots cut and drilled into them, then I lay down the
tubing
into the slots and volla, one primary.  But it doesn't lay flat enough
and
it wouldn't take much to jar it out.

Any input would be appreciated,
Thanks,

Shaun Epp
