The primary winding is continuous with 2 taps. There is a hole in the form where the tap goes inside the form up to the terminal. The tap is not soldered on to the winding, instead the end of the first winding goes up to the terminal then back down to the hole and the second winding then continues. Same with the next tap. I guess you could say that is is 3 separate windings laid end to end or side by side. So, to confuse matters, there is a hole in the form for the 2 ends of the winding, and for the 2 taps. The secondary wires go to the terminals external as you can see on the photo. Hope that helps! (Sorry Kenradio, I missed your previous post!)

An addition: Here are a couple of photos of the coil in process. You will notice that the last section of the primary does not lay nicely. this is because I found a cross over in the wire and I had to unwind and then rewind by hand instead of on my coil winding setup. This may also account for the fact that I needed to add a bit of capacitance to the compensating capacitor.
