Hello Luis,

Thanks for the update. I am in the midst of starting to think about winding a loading

coil for the 50 foot vertical in the front yard.

What is the revolutions per minute of your rotary table ?

What speed are you most comfortable with ?

I am also thinking of a nested "bucket brigade" for a tunable loading coil.

My initial thought was to use a lathe and I built up a jig to horizontally hold the 5 gallon plastic bucket.

Unfortunately I could not get the speed low enough to allow me to comfortably wind the single layer coil.

The lathe has a DC motor and the DC drive board could not be adjusted low enough. I think I need about

0-20 RPM. 0.02mm solid wire is about a #32 AWG or a #36 British WG, rated at ~ 90 milliamperes.

My initial thought was to use a wide double sticky tape at about 4 locations on the bucket, about 90 degrees apart.

I am also considering a tape over the entire coil after winding to hold everything in place.

Another thought is a clear UV proof epoxy over the entire coil, to hold in place.

My concern is the derating of the current due to the reduced dissipation of heat in the covered coil.

Back to the drawing board..... My coil winding will start with #22 AWG from a 4.4 Kg spool.
