Tesla Design from Scratch
From Simreal
Contents |
Because I’m a glutton for punishment, I am designing a Tesla coil from scratch. I’ll be using the work of those that came before me of course, because while I like to do things the hard way, I’m not entirely insane. This installment of my build notes is the starting point in my thinking; from a desired arc length, I will work backwards through the design until I reach the wall plug. Then I’ll refine and construct the coil, and hope that it works!
