Greetings Dan
I have cut out your comment re the cinducting ring approach and advice you
have rcd.

Do those advices stand scrutiny of analysis or not. My post on the subject
based on where the losses occur suggested its completely moot because the
contributor losses from the ring are tiny because losses elsewhere dominate
by at least an order of magnitude and probably two orders of magnitude.
The resistive losses of two parallel strips of good conductor about 1"x12"
added to a primary is trivial.
Did the advice you rcd contain any analytical data or careful emperical
data, I did not see any on the list myself.
One very important advantage of a ring is a point of strength to attach
electrodes to as well. Allows lighter disk because of this.

Both types of design have been used with complete success by many.
Good Luck
