Default 42A WG/ 47 SWG coil winding

I just thought of another possibility. For this sort of very fine wire,
instead of a final delivery pulley I use a tiny PTFE lump on a small bar. A
hole in the PTFE squashed to form a sub-mm slot. Then a 15 foot run back to
the spool (and a light felt slip clutch) to allow for any snatching. Because
of room arrangement , to get a 15 foot run , the winder and so PTFE is set
at an angle of 25 or 30 degrees rather than straight for-aft. Perhaps that
puts a set on the wire.
