The Next Time You Hear Someone Complaining About Winding Toroids....


... send them this video. 

Lin is in Hong Kong. What a great job she does with very simple tools.  Notice how she casually mentions that for those parts that have been lost, she will make them herself.  Three cheers for Lin! 

This video reminded me of the people in Santo Domingo 25 years ago who rewound the transformers and RF chokes from my HT-37.  These parts still work.  

Chuck KF8TI recently told me that when he was a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Philippines (1965-1967) he visited a transformer re-winding shop there, seeing piles of insulation and wire on the floor.  Apparently business was good!

    Lin is quite impressive. Thanks for sharing.
