Re: Cone Primary

Hi Zan,

Cone primaries are "much harder" to make than flat primaries... I hate to see anyone going to the extra trouble if it really does not matter... Try to make it an easy flat coil if you can.

Cheers,

I am building my first Tesla coil. My secondary coil is going to be 4.5" by 24" on PVC. My plan was to build a flat primary coil with 12 turns of 3/8 over all diameter copper pipe, however it came out cone shaped. Will I have any problems or will I be ok?

Thanks, Zan
