square coils will not work, the current goes so fast, it can't turn the
corners and it all shoots out the end.

This causes the current at the top of the coil to be less than that at the
bottom.

All clearly covered in the Kraus Cliff Notes.

The coil in sqcoil.gif has dimensions, Art, but the drawing is in two
dimensions, x & z. The y dimension exists normal to the plane of the
drawing. The coil is a square coil in three dimensions. It is 2 feet
wide in the x dimension and 2 feet wide in the y dimension. The coils
are 0.5 feet apart.
