How do I wind
>picrel
into a coil.
You know, along it's tall side.
I usually do my coil winding under power on the lathe. But I never did rectangular. I'm worried it would 'buckle' and lay down flat if not really tightly constrained.
Do you guy's think I really have to make something like a guide that fences it in on at least 3 sides and a very strong mechanism to clamp the start to the arbor or is there a trick to it?
I alsp dont know how hard or soft it is. Should I take it to red heat first to be sure?
