Vertical primary winding?
Conundrum, Sun Jun 17 2007, 11:30AMHi all.
Just wondered about this one. Instead of winding the primary in a flat spiral, how about obtaining a cylinder of larger size than the secondary, cutting regular slots around the top and bottom with a slight offset, then winding the primary on this?
might work well for smaller coils, and allow more primary turns in the same area.

Do you mean a helical coil? Those are quite common, especially on SSTCs and DRSSTCs. See

I've used both on my 6in SGTC and the helical coil worked very well but there were flashover issues that I couldn't get under control.
