I'd say that you have about seven times the amount of capacitance that you need.
You have 89.3nf when you need about 12nf to be LTR.
Your transfor...

Sorry i meant to say my caps are 0.067uF. I'll try a larger topload. How do you get the top load to have sparks coming out in all directions?

Yes, those are ikea toploads :)
My secondary resonant frequency is 299.68KHz according to DeepFriedNeon's javascript calculator. Does the perform...

Is that an ikea topload? I have two of those 12 cm bowls which are going in my TC too. You should be able to achieve 10-15 inch sparks if you tune you...

Isn't 67nF still very large?

As far as I figured him out, each cap is 67nF. 15 in string give 4,46nF and two strings give some 8,9nF wich is almost exactly resonant to his transfo...

Tuning your tesla coil to resonance is necessary to get the best output, and depending by how much your're off tune the ouptut can just a fraction of ...

By far the best deal I have found is John Freau he makes them himself and a polished 6" X 1.75" torrid sells for $44 shipped in the US. His email is ...

If the toriod becomes larger would a tesla be less saseptible to detuning when there is a arc. Also if the field shaper gets larger will it afect spar...

If you have smooth toroids, you can use a few stacked as collector . I think it would work.
