Re: [TCML] Secondary Coil



I get my magnet wire from a local motor repair shop. I just call them up and tell them how many pounds of what gauge and build and they have it ready for me by the time I drive there.

After obtaining my NST, I think my next step should be constructing the 
secondary coil.  I plan on having a 4" diameter coil using 24 AWG wire. 
 I got these figures off deepfriedneon.com.  Does this sound right?  

I am having a difficult time finding magnet wire in my area.  Would it 
be better for me just to order a spool of 1000' wire?  I've seen a few 
good listings on Ebay for about $30 and was wondering if this is a good 
way to obtain my wire?

Thanks for all your answers.  I kind of feel guilty that I'm starting a 
lot of new threads that are probably second nature to experienced 
coilers.  Thanks for putting up with my constant nagging. ;^)
