At one point i studdied some the supressed Stubblefield methods (earth batteries) and all of the coils that capture the Earth resonant 'telluric' field were "pancake" style!
Hi. No Joke. Just making coils with what I have. In this case, the speaker wire makes (2) bifilar wound coils with exactly the same number of turns. The coils are 60uH inductance each, very well matched. They seem to have a lot of capacitance because of the insulation. May be good for something....
Double sided tape...Brilliant. Why didn't I think of it? Now on my list when I go to the hardward store. Thanks for posting your pancake coil vid's, spawned lots of ideas.
thanks! making my first tesla coil and this will work great since copper tubing and wire in general is damn expensive where I am at right now.

Very helpful video for a project I'm working on - 4x the normal output of a regular pancake coil! Is the speaker wire you're using solid or stranded?

Thanks. The speaker wire is single strand. The insulation is pretty thick so take that into consideration. Let me know how your coils turn out !

Wow man. Who the in the word could come up with an idea to use speaker wire for bifilar tesla coil construction???
It is a joke right?

Interesting , I was naked such coils too in the past , good work:)

thats pretty much how i make spiral coils but lately i use another cd-r on top with something heavy on it

Thanks Luc, resonance may have to wait until I can repair the broken signal gen that I bought.

Great job hydro4f3a,
let us know how your Resonance tests perform.
Thanks for sharing
