I am still having shocks from the coil.I have checked everything.

A few points that could be probs are:
1-the power in for the primary is from a variac.The terminal where the hot 
wire is connected to the variac is also connected to the rectifier.The 
Neutral wire is connceted to the ground of the entire system.The ground wire 
goes to the metal enclosure.

There is probably a wiring problem here.I dunno.It SEEMS to work fine.

2-ALl the pots and the on switch to the 555 timer is bolted on the metal 
enclosure.If there is a wiring problem with the power in for the primary, 
this would explain how the heatsink has a potential.
