Hi Michael,

It looks great, and superb value for money. After having started my DIY coil winder, I now realize that the software is non-trivial!

I have not had a chance to progress it much further, and it's a lot of time and effort. A ready-made coil winder sounds a lot more attractive.

So far I've written a motor driver class for the particular chips I was using (TB67S581FNG), and then trying to encapsulate 'winding' and 'feeder' in separate objects. It's quite ropey currently! And none of it is tested. Photo below shows the board, the wire connections are going to a PicoProbe debugger.

That looks pretty good. I have wound coils using a lathe to spin the bobbins, with wire tension and moving done manually. Your results look much better.

Looks like it does a good job.

I wonder how durable it will be over the long haul.
