Hi all,
Just joined the list. A short bio and then a question.
I'm 37 Male,married, 3 sons, work in a hydro power station in New Zealand as
a production controller.

I have surfed the net following lots of links from Keely net and haven't
seen reference to this particular type of coil.
Think of an ordinary lamp filament, it is constructed as a coiled coil.
The coil I have thought about would be constructed as follows.
Take a length of insulated wire and wind a coil around it, then wind this
wire around a former.
You will have four ends to play with.
Has anyone experimented with a coil of this type?
I'm finding it hard to picture the magnetic field you would have when you
modified the 'standard' coils
magnetic field by applying power to the coiled coil.

Perhaps I've pictured something thats been around for a long time.
