Abstract :
The paper debates the Toroidal Field Model Coil (TFMC) main design and fabrication choices, as well as, coil fabrication issues with respect to technological and project management aspects. The latest test result and the experience gained during the assembly of the TFMC will also be presented. Finally the next major milestones in coil testing and performance analysis are presented.
