How is that even made... and how the hell do you wind that, by hand and automation

i would think that stuff is so thin that it would snap with the lightest force on it.... what would you even use it for, such a tiny current rating...

 		Gets me wondering! I bet the static electricity from my CRT Tv can cut it! Though the copper price would be cheap for something like.. Perhaps artificial lightning?

 		have seen enamelled wire in craft shops before, oatlands has a wide selection.

Unfortunately it usually isn't long enough for a decent secondary, but still handy when you want to wind something custom.

 		I though black spray paint is conductive at high voltages? (Carbon)

 		I don't think so, I spray painted one secondary black and it works normally. But there might be some conductive paints.
