"1) make a directional coupler to tranfer energy from a flyback inductor, to
bottom-feed a Tesla Coil? Guanella hybrid transformer? What material &
construction issues happen with kilo-amp current?"

	In the 100 kHz region???????  Mighty big.  You don't need to
use a core, of course, so you only have to worry about the RMS
current, not the peak.  Suggest you look at the book "Transmission
Line Transformers" by Jerry Sevic.
