>> 5. I created 20" discharges, how many volts is that?
>> 6. Where do I get:
>> 1a. coil wire
>> 1b. HV transformer
>> 1c. Topload
>> 7. Is there any easy way to wind a secondary?
>> 8. Which is better for a first coil: parallel or
>> series tank?
>> 9. Why isn't mine working? (The debug sequence.)
>> 10. Which is the best HV filter? (How do I built a
>> MOT ballast?)
>> 11. What's the best software for beginners?
>> 12. Tunguska! ( Gesunteit!)

>> Probably there should be a separate coil-builers
