Re: [TCML] Primary tubing

Hi Rob,

Not to worry. The 3/8" ID/ 1/2" OD tubing will be quite
adequate for just about any NST driven coil as well as a
PT or a smaller (5 kVA) pole pig driven coil.

Fellow coilers,

Some time ago ordered some 1/2 inch copper tubing on e-bay which I 
incorrectly assumed was 1/2inch plumbing tubing.  It was actually 
refrigeration tubing.   I just gauged it and found it is actually only 3/8 
inch O.D. not 1/2 Inch as advertised.  I'm building an 8 inch coil with (2) 
12KV 60ma NSTs for a total of 120 MA.  Would the 3/8 OD tubing be adequate 
for the primary or should I go larger?
