RE: [TCML] Quick and Cheap Toroid



The individual tape sections make no differance at the typical voltage the
top load has. Bend ducting around a wooden former, filler, sandpaper,
varnish, tape. http://www.hvtesla.com/toroid_2.html
The result is nice and smooth, letting the streamers 'dance' around the
surface.  When it gets scratched, simply burnish the area flat and apply a
new patch, follwed by burnishing the patch itself. Mine has lasted three
years being bashed around.

Woops, guess that would be good to know. 6"x~24". I saw something online
earlier about spackling an alum. duct, painting it and covering it in alum.
tape. Thoughts on this? I'm also kind of concerned about not conducting
across all of the alum.  tape.
