Over the holiday I am going to finish the sled, the tensioner, and bobbin support. If the design looks a bit weird I also designed all the parts so that they would print on a 3D printer that did not have a support material.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-904\" title=\"Coil winder - rough sketch\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hhhh.org\/joeboy\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/coilwinder.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1042\" height=\"1091\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I am using roller skate bearings, springs, and some nuts and bolts &#8211; but the ideas is to keep everything else printed. I will probably just throw together a UI to drive it that talks to a micro-controller board.
