Plastic pill bottles have excellent Q. Free at home or real cheap at a
pharmacy. Easy to mate with a tube base also.

You can buy tube bases, so you dont have to break tubes.
Antique electronic supply was selling them last I looked,
along with coil forms, rf chokes, tubes, sockets, knobs,
and so on.
PVC pipe makes nice coil forms, but to get the best Q, the old B+W
coil stock can not be beat.

That looks really great, I have almost enough bits in my junkbox to
construct this ( might even have a Selenium rectifier! hihi) I love the
sound of breaking glass, now where's all those old dead octals gone?
Seriously though you don't have to use old tube bases but you might have
to
recalculate the coil dimensions, I wonder if there is a simple
transmitter
to go with it? 73 Max M0GHQ
