Re: [TCML] gold secondary



Earl,
If you can get hold of gold coated but un-varnished wire, can't you build a device to run a spool of that wire through a bath of varnish or UV curing conformal coating via a drier or UV light and then directly on to your secondary ?

Probably not a simple or fast process, but I suspect it would be cheaper than having your own wire manufactured.

hi
last year or the year before i posted about making a gold tesla coil ...remember?

im now ready to build it only thing is i cannot find enamelled gold plated wire i have found gold coloured wire but this wont cut it as far as im concerned
gold plated wire does exist for decorative purposes but no insulation on it :(

does anybody on this list have any idea where i could get this stuff made ?

the other option of course is to space wind the coil but this wont do as im making an oltc and a low frequency is desired so a space winding isnt exactly going to cut it

hope someone can help

thanks guys earl
