Slower? What do you mean? Best way to learn is to do. I still have two '51 type single coil PUs. One in my bass.
And making a spit coil adds my understanding about pickups.
& like I previously said
I'd take things a little slower as you are probably missing a ton of things that effect the tone of your pickup ..True singles are hard to beat ."UP here in the Canada we shoot things we don't understand"

Perhaps I don't understand your english enough (Not my mother language). But as I understand it, your style is not very nice. Maybe it is better that I quit here.Last edited by okabass; 07-30-2017, 05:38 AM.

I have been using a dab of black epoxy inside where each magnet meets the bobbin. It works well.
But I am also realizing that if the tension of the wire is such that it is warping the bobbin, it isn't correct. There is very little tension on that wire. The old machines Leo slapped together wouldn't allow significant tension to be applied. It kept the bobbins flat and prevented the winders from snapping coil wire in the middle of winding.
