Re: [TCML] VTTC, 1.75" x 6" spun aluminum toroids

Hi John,

I doubt list members want to hear of my stuff. I really didn't do a lot 
with the VTTC other than blow up an 833C tube by hooking it up backwards 
(DOH!) and eventually blowing up my stacatto controller. Well, I'm doing 
some reformatting of classictesla.com for various reasons and decided to 
throw up some VTTC stuff for anyone interested, but there's not much to 
see. I'm using a dual MOT setup in parallel. What I need to do is fix 
the controller and put those MOTs in series for that all wonderful high 
voltage where all the long sparks come from ;-) .

I've also put up a DRSSTC page which I've been meaning to do for about a 
year. Kind of love the DRSSTC. I used the same 8.5" diameter secondary 
for my old SRSG, TSG, SISG, and whatever.. This time I used that same 
secondary for this DR coil (just happened to by a higher L coil than 
most SG's build so it just made the grade). Lord, what a difference! So 
much better in so many ways, and so much more complicated to build also. 
Anyway, here's the DRSSTC I did last year. Which I did blow up also (I'm 
really good at that).

BTW, people may notice classictesla is getting a makeover. I'm not 
settled on what that will be. Some will hate it, some will love it, some 
won't care. I got tired of the old look. Every couple years I just play 
a little. JAVATC and all the meat is still unchanged (at this point).

Take care,
Bart
