Forgot to mention, the last weekend I did finish winding the coil, and today attached the wires to the lugs. Good thing is, today's magnet wire allows too be tinned without the warnish being stripped.
I was about to install it when I realized there were tuning cap's grommets that needed to be replaced, which would be more difficult with the coil in place, so I changed them (luckily I had some that would fit).

After having drunk my beer, which I am in the process of consuming as I am writing this (Little Sumpin' by Lagunitas, excellent IPA, highly recommended), I might just go and install the coil.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
