Re: [TCML] Turn-to-Turn short circuit

Dear Matthew,
May I give you a advice that was very helpfull for myselve when I started coiling -? There are so many incredibly good , informative and easy to understand sites af all 
the well knewn and respected experts that write regulary in this forum!
If you take the time to read throu theire sites you will soon have all basic knewledge 
that prevents you to  make errors that gives you a lot of basic knewledge.

OK. Thanks for all of your help, everyone. (Buy the way, Mr. Karr, it was
your instructions that I used, but it would appear that I didn't use the
right kind of wire). I am going to rewind both chokes, using magnet wire. I 
do have a question about the gauge of the wire, though. What is an
acceptable gauge for, not only the chokes, but also the Secondary Coil? I
have access to a whole bunch of (the right kind of) 36 gauge wire, and was
wondering if that would work. I was thinking it would for the coil, but not 
for the chokes. My secondary coil tube is 2.25" in diameter, and I will be
using 8-10 turns on my primary. I was thinking 5000 turns for the secondary 
coil, which, if my math is correct, would equal 2943.75 feet of wire. If I
did my calcs right, with 8 turns on the primary, this would put my output
voltage up to 5,000,000 volts (ideally). Just wondering if the wire would
(safely) work!

Thanks,
Matthew
