You're trying to spell "toroid". WalMart sells 9"
sheet metal pie pans for about $2 a pair. Two of these
glued or riveted together back to back make a cheap,
sturdy wheelrim-like assembly. This can be wound with
4" aluminum flex duct from Lowe's or Home Depot to
make a neat toroid about 17" in diameter. A bungee
cord inside the flex duct will hold it snug against
the pie pan "wheelrim".  A bead of hot glue on each
side will keep things tight after you've joined the
ends of the flex duct together with aluminum tape.
I've used a toroid like this at powers from 540W up to
7500W, and gotten good results all around.

Cheers,

Greg
