Winding gear in Europe

[London Customs]

Hi everyone,

My name is Paul, I'm starting out winding pickups in Holland. Does anyone have any ideas on where I can get wire etc. for winding pickups in Holland, Germany or the UK? Thanks in advance!

Cheers

Look at EBAY Deutschland

eBay Shop - Kupferlackdraht-Shop: Wir verkaufen Kupferlackdraht, Kupferdraht, Lackdraht.

Conrad electronic has 0.050mm wire (Quantity reaches for one singlecoil)

A good way to get sone cheap wire is to look for transformer-builder near of you, they will have often leftovers from production runs.

I hope it helps you

For wire call Elektrisola. They stock wire of different sizes and grades of insulation.

It depends on the quantity you need on parts. I order my parts like bobbins from China and Korea-but you have to order 1000 or more pieces of a needed part.

I try to make the most parts myself or search for manufacturers in germany and order parts to my specs(polepieces, screws, plating).
