Hi Gary et al ...

first off ...  a 12.5KV -at- .5KVA ???   pig?  ( sounds more like a NST )  
most piggies run 14KV -at- 10KVA

anyway...   "building"  a coil is easy ....  getting to work is another 
story ;)

get the address to the Tesla List ( a list of webpages dealing with T 
coils) and read read read....

http://j.webring-dot-com/hub?ring=teslaring&id=265&hub

notice all the different variations of spark gaps and capacitor set ups 
and decide which is feesible to your financial limits...   ( big hint 
here  go for the MMC style caps ) (( home mades are a good learning 
experience but it gets real pricey after 3 or 4 times of rebuilding them ))
