I like this driver, thinking about building it, as it has longer straighter arcs, and doesn't use a spark gap!:

But my first problem is I don't have ground rods... i found this design that seems to work without needing them:

also i would like to split the primary and secondary so both coils travel parallel as insinuated in this example:

but in this 3rd example there is ground rod... can i do without it?
can I combine these 3 technologies? also for the phase detection would analog read work on a low end PIC for a per degree detection?
