I have NOT wound them yet, this is the forms I have on hand, 9" and 6"
so I can do any length and the 13Kv 150MA transformer is not a NST. I
apologize for not being clear in my first email. I plan on the MMC to
have different tap points for adjustments. 51 caps in 3 rows, tapped
17,16,15 .
I have a big spool of the silver 20ga wire and it is .050 with the
insulation. The only thing that is complete is the spark gap. It is
multi tube gap with a fan from my first coil.  I might keep a rotary gap
in mind for another time but I want to get the coil running before I
change gaps and open a new bag of worms.

Hey Rich...

do you have the length measures available? especially the amount of
tube covered by the wire...??  with that info available to us we can
give you a better answer

but with the info you have provided I would do the 6" PVC 24 gage wire
tube...
