  • CAD drawing for humbucker bobbins?

    I'm working on a CAD drawing of a mandrel for a multi-bobbin winder and it would really save me some time is someone already had a drawing for a humbucker bobbin I could integrate into it. No need to be exact. I can tweak it. Screw/slug/both. I'll take whatever is available.

    Any chance one of you has already gone through this while creating a die or something similar?

    Thanks,
    James

    Have you looked at Seymour Duncan's website? They have technical drawings there that might work for you......

      Thanks, Dave. I appreciate the tip. No, I hadn't considered that. Though I don't see any DWG or other CAD format drawings, they do have lots of dimensioned images that will be helpful.

      FYI for anyone else interested:

        Here's what I've come up with as a rough (not to scale) drawing so far:



        I'm going for something like Duncan's Stevens winder is equipped with here:

          Just run the pins a little less than half way through the bobbin for each spacer and mounting plate. The bobbins themselves lock the entire thing together. No need for a solid pin that runs the length of the entire stack.
          They don't make them like they used to... We do.
