Two part question, what is/are the optimum coating/['s] for a secondary?
What would be the optimum distance from the outer-most coil on the secondary
for the toroid's for this bi-polar coil"
Secondary = 3.5" X 26" 26AWG
NST = 12KV X 30 Ma
MMC = 30KV X 10NF [I know, should be at least 36KV
Toriods = 9" X 2.750"

OK… lil footnote for the newbies…
Keep the spark gap as close to the MMC and the primary as possible,
especially when the high voltage power supply is a few meters away.
Reason being is the spark gap sets the frequency for the primary.
A wire produces higher resistance at higher frequencies and the longer the
wire between the spark gap and the primary, is like putting a huge resistor
in the line.
Getting stumped by stupid things like this is the reciprocal of no sleep and
and multiple halloween props to repair.
