Jacco,
With Rajeev's "Lathe" style winder, winding a coil is just as much a craft as it is a science! Give that to someone like me and I will cross coils over eachother like there's no tomorrow.
Well, i was thinking of making a coil winder as the one Magura made. (shown on BrianGT homepage)
For winding coils for the Pass thingies powersupplies.
Havent been able to find a Bell wire supplier here yet for the right thickness and length though.

I might have just the thing for you (maybe too thick but boy is it good.) and square too for better compactness, Too bad I shipped your caps yesteday or I would have added them. Look at the pic:
Specs are: 11 gauge: cross section of 0.0947 inches: 1 ohm per 1000 feet.

I am wondering how an Indian can be rich in India !!!

Rajeev,
India has the largest number of billionairs in the world, ask them.
fyi :
a large part of ship demolition takes place in India, profits are huge.
Seems to be changing though>>

Jacco,
The most number of Billionaires are in the US not in India.... India has Billion people and a few Billionaires.... unless you are measuring in Rupees not Dollars or Euros.
New York: Indian-born steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal became the third richest person in the world, trailing only Microsoft chief Bill Gates and US investment guru Warren Buffett.
London-based Mittal boosted his fortune after quadrupling his net worth by $ 18.8 billion to $ 25 billion, Forbes Magazine yesterday (Mar 10, 2005) said. Mittal climbed 59 steps from last year to number three in 2005.
India's 40 richest! A Forbes Special
India's entrepreneurs have thrived: Nineteen of the 40 richest created their fortunes from scratch. Two high-growth industries have fueled much of the wealth.
The ten richest Indians include 1. Lakshmi Mittal, Mittal Steel, $11.2 billion; 2. Azim Premji, Wipro, $10 billion; 3. Mukesh & Anil Ambani, Reliance group, $6.4 billion; 4. Kumar Mangalam Birla, AV Birla group, $3.5 billion; 5. Pallonji Mistry, Tata Sons, $2.9 billion; 6. Sunil Mittal, Bharti group, $2.6 billion; 7. Shiv Nadar, HCL, $2.3 billion; 8. Adi Godrej, Godrej group, $1.9 billion; 9. Malvinder & Shivinder Singh, Ranbaxy, $1.5 billion; 9. Dilip Shanghvi, Sun Pharma, $1.5 billion.
Eleven list members made their money in technology, including six who were cofounders of software firm Infosys Technologies. Another nine owe their fortunes to pharmaceuticals. Several produce and sell generics overseas--like Yusuf Hamied, who heads leading generics producer Cipla. Biotech pioneer Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw is the sole female on the list.
Although Mumbai is home to 40 per cent of list members, others hail from emerging business hot spots like Bangalore and Delhi.
A minimum net worth of $305 million was required to make the cut. For people with publicly traded fortunes, net worths were calculated using current share prices and exchange rates. For privately held fortunes, Forbes estimated what companies would be worth if they were public.
While almost all members do business in India, citizenship was enough to be eligible. Thus the inclusion of Lakshmi Mittal (whose steel business is registered in the Netherlands) as India's richest person.
Because the wealthy in India have traditionally held assets through a maze of investment firms or trusts and in family members' names, it is often difficult to get individual holdings.
So for most list members their net worths indicate family fortunes. Forbes has highlighted only wealth that it could document; thus some fortunes, like those of certain secretive real estate tycoons, may have been left off.

you cant imagine the wealth in that country

From the IndianExpress :
Poor Rich Country
One thing I did learn recently was a stastic revealed by Time Magazine that India has more millionairs than any other country , that revelation was surprising given the poverty in India.
Did you know that the word "indian" in Australia means (American) indian unless your talking about cricket !

Jacco,
The B and the M make a BIG difference. 😉
I also read the article, and substituting the M and B and your statement makes much more sense now. I know the size of India's economy, however I do not consider it developed, the disparity between rich and poor is staggering, however thats how nations develop. India and china will probably overtake US GDP soon...

True,
i am in the shipping business so i know how ship demolition takes place.
Not a very developed or kind way to make your money.
Fact remains that a lot of money is made in India or by Indians, India is becoming more and more an important economic force.
I was merely demonstrating Indian's business skills.

Indians have always been very enterprising even when they are poor. There are certain ethnic groups that are better at business than others. The next century will revolve around human resources, and India and China have a lot of it. The US has a balanced mix though and that is it's strength.

Dear Jacco & K-amps ,
I wish I could wind the caps too , however I had repaired one big one
sometime back but I only use it in testing ,
With this winding it is very simple to wind transformer coils ( you do need
some skill ), loudspeaker coils and inductors , I can wind coils with all
gauges of copper wire from 45swg to 9swg with the same machine , I
have two of these machines and have been using them since the last
25years , I make all my required custom made transformers , passive
crossover network coils and loudspeaker coils myself , I repair various
transformers and loudspeakers back to original , this is my profession .
If you want I will take some pictures of loudspeaker coils and inductors
next time and attach the same for you to see .
Cheers
Rajeev

Overhere, when someone is a little rich, he turns to his poor spirit.
Granted, i turned a bit Boeddhist.
I met a guy who wound turntable cartridge coils at a table in his attic.
Crafted fellow, Aalt-Jouk vandenHull.
Maybe you should wind us DIY people some CLC inductor coils, Rajeev.
I'd love to see some pics.
