Or you could pay 175 for the Original made by the original Designer.
Why should it be 240-350 when 175 will do ?

By the same token, why would you buy an Escalade when a Ford will do? The
difference is materials and the ability to run power if desired. PVC is not
really a good form for loading coils. Phenolic is messy and much more
expensive. The original uses #16 wire wound at 10 TPI; I prefer #14 at 8 TPI
which is actually more efficient. You can even to to #12 at 6 TPI. Not sure
that isn't past any real gains in efficiency, tho.
