Hi amp builders. 



If all goes well, I should have a pile of parts on my door today to wind my 
switch mode ps transformer. 



I'm differing from the original article in that instead of using solid copper 
pipes, I'm going to use an insulated braided copper sleeve.  I've drawn two 
simplified diagrams on the windings and am looking for opinions.

The red represents a cross sectional view of the primary, the braided copper 
tube, while the blue represents the secondary high voltage insulated wire. 



Figure 1 is wound like a traditional rf transformer would be, but it would also 
require the primary to be woven through the transformer toroid's first, and the 
secondary would need to be snaked through the bends.   



Figure 2 would allow the primary and secondary to be constructed as a unit, in 
a strait line, then the whole assembly to be snaked through the toroid's.   





Comments?   Other suggestions? 


73,
