Congrats, Dan,

    Anyone know the dielectric strength of the plastic layer on 
disposables?  ;-))

Hi Dan,

Congratulations!!!

I think you can wind the secondary on one of those plastic baby
bottles.  There is that plastic ring toy by Fisher Price that goes from
smaller to larger "toroids" that has the perfect forms for the top load.
:-)  Not much metal in baby stuff, but cribs used to have 1/4 inch steel
slide rods to bend the primary from.  If he can get used to cold formula,
he won't be needing that microwave oven transformer for warming bottles
:o)  Probably plenty of plastics and foil stuff for the primary cap...

Even baby Tesla coil builders have to use what they have available :O)))

Cheers,

        Terry
