        I looked and looked and could not find anybody willing to
        wind my ignition coils. Probably most are made in china or
        with automation.

        A coil winder that would do what I need done is several thousand
        dollars.

        I had to invent my own.

        Can anybody tell me what it has in common with the Wright brothers
        flyer ? :)

    How about using a fishing reel with the mechanism to wind the line back and forth.
    Just modify it to be able to remove the end opposite the crank. Could drive it with a
    drill and use a micro switch to turn it off when the required diameter (number of turns)
    is reached.

    I have never gone fishing :) They are costly are they not?


    The bearing plates are done with the bearings pressed in.

The m/n 209 is the one I was thinking of.

It must stop between layers to add special HV insulating tape.

Almost done.
