I am close to finishing my TC. Gregory Hunter helped me design it (this
is my first one) The Schematic can be seen here...

I am worried about running it though. I am in college and still live at
home. My parents would be very upset if it messed anything up. I have a
25A EMI filter that I will hook up backwards. I am a little unclear on my
main gap and safety gaps. I have done a lot of research and am still not
sure what to do. I know that a bad measured gap can mean death to your
NST. I really don't want that seeing as how it took me about 6 months and
$45 to get mine. I was going to use solid heavy brass knobs for my main
gap and 1/4" x 1 1/4" brass shelf pins for my safety gaps. I have a 8ft
5/8" grounding rod, I also constructed a strike rail. My MMC caps are the
same as the Dr. Resonance sells (Cornell Dubilier). Anything I should do
to be extra safe and protected? Thanks
