... a few years ago, while winding a 4" coil , I ran short of wire 
'bout 2/3 of the way .   Before making my splice , I found another 
piece of wire, of similer size,, insulated  with pvc and striped off 
about an inch of the insulation and sliped it over my secondary wire 
, carefully soldered my splice, then put a  little epoxy on the 
spice, then slid the pvc jacket over the spice.,..seems to work 
fine,.......hope that all made sense ;-)
