I spotted the Morris coil winder advertised as a 'buy-it-now' on the US ebay site, and decided I had to have it!
Fortunately as it isn't overly heavy the postage was manageable.
It also came with a bag of bits and pieces such as the 'cast forms' and the wooden dowels referred to in the instructions for winding spider web coils.
The 'list price' shown on the instruction leaflet is $7.50, I wonder what that equates to now? What was an average weekly wage in the US in the mid-30's?
I don't think it has ever seen much use, if any at all, so sadly it probably doesn't have much of a tale to tell, just patiently waiting its day to be used!
