Kevin,
Welcome to the school of hard knocks. Every Engineer slams
head first into the hard-wall-of-reality.
One designs a device as One thinks it should work and the darn thing
sticks it's tongue out at you, thereby proving that One didn't know
what One was doing;(
You then have to examine the effect, hypothesize a cause, and devise a
solution. Try...Try...Again.
Tesla Coils are GREAT for demonstrating this fundamental property of
nature;)
