secondary coil design?



Original poster: "by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <Beans45601-at-aol-dot-com>

I was looking at some col pictures and niticed that the first 20 or so
turns of the secondary coil was 10 guage wire and #18 magnet wire the rest
of the way. What are the perks of using this method instead of the usual
magnet wire all the way up? How can i get diffrent color streamrs from my
coil? A while ago, i was doing that thing where you have the two nails in a
peice of wood and the black (carbon?) goes between the two nails (how does
that work anyway?) and i got a little fire, well, for somereason i thought,
i wonder what 15kv does to fire, i put one of the lines in the fire and NO
MORE FIRE!! it was amazing!! anyway, what caused the fire to go away? or
maby it just me breathing on it...
Thanks
