Thread-topic: this reminds me RE: [TCML] An O.T. weighs in
This reminds me - I built some small coils long ago and then got distracted by other things - I have some pieces put aside - a "terry gap" made crudely in a piece of PVC tubing - works well, but not beautiful, a primary flat wound on acrylic out of 1/4" tubing, and a secondary on a 4" pvc pipe form - these things aren't doing me any good - they are in southern California - cover the cost of the copper and they are yours.
Regards, Bill

Subject: [TCML] An O.T. weighs in
Greetings, Tesla List-
So...interest is diminishing, is it? Well, I,m sorry to hear it but the same here, tho the fact that I'm now 90 will have a lot to do with my own loss of it. Plus...my and my lady-friend's morbid fascination with our current & lamentable White House soap-opera. I remember the huge 3-phase 440V SG coil on display once, down south of San Francisco.
Secondary wound with cable used in locomotives as I recall. 20 ft or so screaming, streaming and deafening arcs dancing all around, plus the accompanying SG. Yea!...Hooray! (Can't remember who made it...)
