John,

Why? Especially with a large spool, doesn't that allow the wire to fall from 
the top of
the spool, clump up and maybe even fall over the rim of the spool? Seems like 
a
small point because it probably is. All the pictures I have seen of  factory 
coil winding
machines show the spool horizontal and above. That's what I saw when I toured 
the Thordarson plant in Chicago, c. 1942.

Happy day,
