That is really freakinā cool!
Iām going to look into that for sure. The problem is that I love making them by hand. I have a Daedalus that works well, but I still like making them the old way. Itās therapeutic.
I definately want one of those that you got though. I love gadgets and toys.

I certainly donāt want to stop you enjoying your coil building but since you mentioned arthritis, thought this could be helpful for the painful days.

Iāve seen videos on that setup before @Suomynona. How hard is it to use ?? Learning curve ??

I just had to figure out to put some grease on the clamp thatās controlled by the pedal. I lubed it up with some food grade grease I have for my Delonghi coffee maker but I suppose you could use whatever you have. Otherwise, learning curve close to zero.
I did have experience with the beadalons though. If youāre using 40g wire or thinner, you donāt want it too tight around your spool or the wire breaks. Also try to center the cores in your drill so they donāt wobble too much when you spin fast. That clamp from 3dvape makes it really easy though, before I had that I did have some issues now and then but thatās maybe because I have an old and cheap drill.
With the setup I have now, a 3 year old can do this.

No prob. They make really good tools. Just be aware that it takes a while before they deliver and the process felt a little weird and amateurish. Everything is made on demand so it can take a week (or two) before they ship your order but once itās out it goes fast.

Has been in the $1.29-ish range around here but has spiked to $1.49 today. But I havenāt gotten fuel since March so itās probably going to be back over $2 when I need it again in June.

Finally:
If I can resist COVID as long as I could resist buying a Dual Topside, I assume they found a vaccine in the meantime.
But it was time now and the squonker just arrived in the mail today.
