RE: [TCML] A couple of questions
I have a pretty nice one that you can check out on youtube.
Do a google search on "special bipolar tesla coil" and it will pop up as
a video.
If you like it I can share some info with you.
The base is about 2.5' across and 1.5' deep, but it doesn't need to be
that big.
Makes awesome plasma or the outputs can be turned around for streamers.
Re:ground wire...I've done really long ground lines and it has worked
just fine. Shouldn't matter much as long as there isn't a whole lot of
resistance.
I used a long (20-30'?) orange extension cord wire with both ends cut
off, and all of the wires twisted together at both ends.
Worked great.

Subject: [TCML] A couple of questions
Hello all,
Does anyone know of plans for a tabletop Bi-polar coil? I have
found lots of videos but not a lot of hard or modern info. I have the
Boy Electrician book plans. Suppose it could be modified. I would like
to build one with a cylindrical secondary, not cone shaped.
Also I know this has been asked before. I need to put in a ground rod
for my present coil. My concern is that any practical location is near
the mains ground and copper water lines or the ground cable would be
very long.Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
