SALE: TESLA COILS-I am not in the business of selling Tesla coils but I have finally finished and tested two designs and am going to follow with experimentation in other designs. Therefore I have two coils, one vertical and the other horizontal bipolar. The plywood parts are finished in maple. These units will give a 24" spark with a 15KV, 60ma transformer (depending upon spark gap and capacitor efficiency). Write TCBA and/or send $1 for color Polaroid (state which coil you are interested in). Prices are very-very reasonable considering the time spent.
