Why buy one?  Just get a couple of 2x4's, some wooden rods (all available at
home depot), and build your own simple jig.
I've wound all my coils with the "Poor man's winder" shown in the picture in
the following link:  Just manually turn the secondary and wind.
The large 10" x 48" secondary in the picture was wound in less than an hour
by hand!
