Hi all,

I wound about 4" in dia of the coil and found that the wood support was
bending slightly towards the outside. This attempt proved to have failed
:(  Plan B: is to wind in flat and stick the wire onto the wood disc as I go
along.  I have some super strong double sided tape which works well so I
will have to start again tomorrow.  It will of course take ages to wind it
like this but it should be done this side of christmass ;-\  .   I will get
back to everyone when its done and report the final results, not sure when
that will be but hopefully about 2 weeks I guess....
