  • How low can you go?

    Just wondering .... what's the thinnest wire gauge that can be reasonably wound by hand?

    I've heard of people using 46, though I've never tried it myself. I've noticed differences in tensile strength in different brands and insulations, so it might become a very subjective question...

      I've wound some pickups with 46 AWG. I wasn't as hard as I expected once I got a feel for it.
      It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure. — Albert Einstein
