Besides Psubs I also play around with Tesla Coils (a nifty not-so-little very
high voltage device), which takes a bit of math to design properly. Someone
wrote a program called "Wintesla" that would automatically calculate many of
the necessary numbers bsed on what you put in in other fields, could
something like that be done for PSubs?
