[Boatanchors] coil tap

[Al Klase]

Steve,

I think what you're talking about is a "bug"
See:  
http://www.foxelectricsupply.com/content/products/ProductDetail.asp?qsCatID=24629&qsProductNo=8H
They're made out of bronze and sure enough, they're $250 a throw.  The 
other thing you might be talking about are the narrow clamps for tapping 
a piece of Air-Dux, but why would you want to tap a coil at several 
hundred places?

Once again, you're confusing us.

Merry Christmas,
Al
