MAKE Flickr photo pool member Tesla1000 has a ton of photos of experiments with high voltage - I like this photo of one of the experiments in the suburbs. Link.

Beautiful workmanship. Thanks for sharing. If you can search back issues of Pop Science, they had a T. Coil project with plans back in the late '50's which I made, a baby compared with this one. Cost for copper is going up, so don't wait if you want to make one!
