Congrats on the 2-2.5m streamers!

My NZ based coil is very similar in configuration, performance and dimensions to yours/loneocean's DRSSTC3 (get the same streamer length at a similar OCD setting).

Your base is a little tidier - mine is larger and square, but I still think I did a good job. If I'm ever back in NZ for long enough and near Tauranga would need to bring it along for twin DRSSTC music or something!

Edit: pic (with stuff just visible ontop of toroid for current measurement)

That coil is looking good!

Very similar dimensions to mine.
Im in the middle of trying to source another IGBT, as one has failed, im pretty confident now that this was a result of a GDT wire breaking off from the gate on the brick.

Dont know how it happened, but that single core wire is pretty fragile and you have to be careful when stripping the stuff!

Would be awesome to meet with other builders and do some Twin DRSSTC music!

It will be a while before I get another one built.
