Bart & Lisa - Twin Tesla coil Half Wave system

My Two coils wound on their respective formers. There are 1600 turns of 44AWG (42SWG) wire on a 4.2" by 0.6" former - a pair of Pyrex test tubes.

This is the datasheet for the coil, done on TheDesigner 3 spreadsheet by Corey Ruch... If you want it, you can download it from here. The coil specs are on the sheet.
My MMC strings, before mounting and attatchment of bleeder resistors. Each string is 14*1.6KV=22.4KV, and 0.068uF/14=0.0048uF per string. I will be using two of these strings to get about 0.009uF.
