TL;DR
SGTC issues
I made a SGTC few minutes ago and it is just not making any sparks.I used a MOT and the microwave oven capacitor as main HV circuit.I also made some types of SG but that doesn't work either, tried many schematics and tutorials from YouTube but no sign of working. Please help me!

Welcome to PF.

Show us what you have done so far. Also, what experience do you have so far in working with high voltage circuits?
 
I disassembled the circuit sadly...My experience in HV circuits are not good so far but I know things about high voltages.I don't have experience in these types of circuits and I want to learn.
