    Right to left, under the bottom would be the winding direction 
according to customary screw machine (lathe) work.
    FWIW, I made a winding rig (spare 48V DC motor, .5 KVA x-former 
to isolate/halve incoming line voltage, variac, bridge rectifier, 
fence pickets, 2x4's, angle iron, and Unistrut...) and I go left to 
right, over the top.
    Half an hour to wind, a week to varnish.
