If you are going to make a Tesla type device out of a flyback there are only
two wires that you will need and they are on the secondary. The capped one
will be a HV discharge and the ground or the other end of the secondary coil
will be under the bottom further to the outside than the rest but not much..
You will need a large dia. secondary to get a good output, about 3 inch and
most all of the other is junked. Taking the flyback apart is teidious without
damage to the core but can be done, then you re wind your own pri and hook it
to a 555 oscillator and some pots to tune freq and vary voltage. I can give
you a step by step if you like, it would probably be better private E-Mail
since not directly Tesla related.   SSNSanders-at-aol-dot-com
