    Tesla Coil
    Does anyone have good plans for a vacuum tube tesla coil? I built the spark gap variety years ago and would now like to explore a vacuum tube version. I'm looking for something fairly small and manageable - not those massive designs with a gazillion volt potential . :eek: Thanks...

    Thanks Capuchin - but I've already seen that site. That coil, in fact, seems a little bit anemic and the site link appears to be partially dead.

    Anyone else have any suggestions - would prefer to hear from someone who has actually built one and has some useful experience... Thanks
