primary and secondary coils
Yongsoo, Mon Jul 16 2007, 12:11AM
I'm rebuilding my tesla coil and I need some help.
Where the heck do i find a pvc pipe with a 3 inch diameter. I've been to like 5 different hardware stores and they only have 3 inch abs.
Also, for winding the primary coil, what's the best way to do it. I'm trying to make a flat spiral since it looks easiest but it's quite frustrating to do. What's the best and easiest way to make an efficient primary coil.

You may have better luck using a 3" 'sonotube' in the concrete area, which is basically a heavy duty cardboard tube... WAY cheaper than PVC... Or construction sites... Heck,
amazon sells it :p
