The one occasion when wearing gloves when operating a lathe is reccomended.
(I've modded my C6 has been modded for slow ops like this one, motor to spindle speed ratio is set to around 8:1 in this clip)

Nice job, hand cranking works well too when slow speeds are not there. Dirk.
Nice video. I would have thought the the front bar would have been set closer the the mandrel, to reduce the "spring back" in the set of the wire. How did you determine the setup that you achieved? What were your further processes after this wind? I have never done any spring winding but always have wanted to try.
If only I could download the video :-((
I thought it was .avi, (I converted it from the original 60MB .mov off the camera) looks like things ain't as simple as they seem!

I can download it, but can't see it. :-) It's a proprietary format of the "evangelists of compatibility".

You have probably made your springs by now, but you might find
is worth a look.
