Default Re: Toroids as O/P trannies

Hi Gents, Toroid winding, use a saddle and stirup.
Saddle is a place on the bench in front of you with a wood block and felt pad, hole in toroid faces towards operator.
Stirup is a loop of belting or similar, it is anchored behind toroid and passes through the central hole and one foot is placed in it to anchor the toroid to the bench.
Shuttle is an "H" shaped piece of wood with sufficient space ob the centre limb of the H for all the wire. Continusly pass shuttle through toroid and move toroid on saddle to keep winding at the top. Quite simple really.
