I am a few weeks into the build of a fairly large Tesla coil and I thought I would create this blog to record my progress and hopefully get some positive feedback if I get stuck along the way. I have already got a couple of the main components. The first to arrive was a 10 amp variac which I purchased on ebay from a company called Wattbits, ebay shop can be found at http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Wattbits?_trksid=p4340.l2563
I bought the panel mount version with no casing partly due to being a lot cheaper than the cased version and I decided to make a perspex casing.

ReplyDeleteThank you for posting your progress on this blog! I'm planning on building my own tesla coil as well at some point. Perhaps mine won't look as nice as yours, but I think its going to be a lot of fun. I was wondering if you could also blog about the design details of your tesla coil.
Thanks!
