Re: A phone too far ...?
You could be looking at something like 43SWG for a 2000 Ohm bobbin. It's a lot of work to get wrong! But until we can find the actual diameter, you'd need to start somewhere.

Right... There's a picture of a 59D bell movement on Bob's Telephone Pages and it's clearly labelled 17000 turns of 0.08mm wire. So nearest is 44SWG. Phew!

Re: A phone too far ...?
You're welcome. I'd be interested to see how you get on with this. I possess a small hand-operated coil winder with a turn counter on it, and I've successfully rewound a couple of 26A Alnico magneto generators and an auto transformer from a Beethoven shot-firing exploder. But I've never done anything as small as 44SWG before.
Might be worth having a go at it!
