Hi Andrew,

Wow! Talking about a stroke of good luck and a dream come
true for a true coiler :) I have an uncle who has a pretty good 
personal collection of machine shop power tools and the skills
to properly utilize those said tools but he live several hundred 
miles away from me :( 

Good luck and long sparks with your coil project.

David Rieben
