......I finished my new rotary for my 4" coil,....I forgot how loud 
these things were, and, they put out some pollution too. I had 
trouble getting it to run smoothly, but it did work and seemed to 
increase my spark length a bit.. I run my coil in da basement and da 
wife was upstairs in the kitchen/dinning area ( right above the coil 
) :-) ....I was enjoying the sparks with my earmuffs on, when my wife 
came running down to the basement to tell me I just electrocuded 
her,......the energy was commin up through the floor,.....boy, she 
was a bit pissed off and  I thought she may take an axe to my beloved 
T. Coil !!!  Well, she's calmed down a bit today, and I told her I 
would hook up the ol' static gap again and it would be OK 
,.....................MERRY XMAS !!!
