Mike: One coiler last year did a great amount of work with flat coils. I do
not have his list address at this time, He perfected a winding method of
winding on a flat board with double sided tape. another member of the list
wound flat coils with an odd number of spokes so the coils had a basket
spider web appearance. If you search the list files for last year these men
did a lot of fine work with flat coils.
