I am building a DRSSTC and need to make some money to buy the final parts. I have the parts on hand to build a rotary spark gap similar to this: http://tesladownunder.com/tesla_coil_4inch.htm#Spark%20gap. The only difference is that I will be using a hobby motor that will be spinning at about 50Hz so if you live where the mains is 50Hz its an SRSG but if you live elsewhere its an ARSG. The two fixed electrodes will be tungsten welding rod and the electrodes in the disk will be steel and the disk will be make of Delrin plastic. I want to see if anyone is interested in buying the spark gap before I spend the time to make the thing. If you are interested, make me an offer. If multiple people are interested it goes to the highest bidder. I live in California so shipping to the continental USA should not be an issue but I would appreciate if the buyer could pay shipping costs. Thank you!
UPDATE: Muttyfutty pointed out that the link to Tesladownunder does not work and I have now edited the post and updated it so it should work now. One thing I forgot to mention in the original post, the motor runs off of 12 volt DC power, so you will need to have some method of powering that.

Well since nobody else is responding, I am reconsidering the shipping portion of the my offer. How much would shipping to Malaysia cost? I live in California so how much would shipping from me to you cost?

Anyone want a rotary spark gap?
