I invite anybody to try my setup up. It will bring HUGE sparks.

Here are the steps:

1. Get yourself a PC SMPS i used AT 200 W
2. Toke the board out.
3. Remove ferite cored transformer
4. Connect flyback  primary to the points where primary of transformer under
3 were.
5. Apply power

Best Regards
