Update 2/24/2022: I've uploaded the STL files for the machine. Note that not all of these parts are used in the final iteration and I didn't sort them yet

Update 1/17/2022: Schematics and code are linked below. Currently I only have the values for 26 AWG in the code so you'll have to extrapolate for other wire gauges

In this video I'll show how i made a machine to automate the process of coil winding. It can be used for electromagnets, tesla coils, loopstick antennas, transformers, generator coils or indcutive chokes all things I use a lot of.
Code, Schematics, STLs:
I'm still making a few tweaks. Check back in a few days and I'll update this field with links to all of these.
