Hello my name is Dakota Garey. I'm a Senior at the Mid-East Career and Technology Center in Zanesville, Ohio. To graduate from my program I must complete a Senior Project. My area of interest is in wireless power transfer via a Tesla Coil. I must have a knowledgable mentor to succeed, and it is required by the board. I need some one who has a substantial knowledge in all things Tesla, especially in the construction of Tesla coil. We can communicate via the internet. If there is anyone interested you can email me at dakota.garey@gmail.com

Thanks Sincerely,
Dakota Garey

what can I say man. In this field I know only a handful of people over the world, I am starting a business on the side and maybe in 1 year or 2 years I have an ongoing thing where we can develop our own Tesla coil and sell them as household appliances. I hope the internet community gets together and fund something regarding the coils that is larger than life.

I am currently following a kit to build a coil (I do not know how it works but the kit is provided by an IEEE scientist by the name Steve Jackson in case you have not seen it , please search for it). The kit gets you to build a coil and test it.
By the way, did you read Professor Meyl's books? Which is good?

I have infact read one of Dr. Konstantin Meyl's book.  I really enjoyed "Self-consistent Electrodynamics" and i highly recommend it. I have only read a synopsis of the others but i intend to read them. Your business sounds like it has great potential . A tesla coil would make daily life easier.
