Counted off with no breaks, paint stripper on outer layer and then blast of
hot air if the wire was "grabbing" . No hot spot or shorted turns. Break 5mm
from the end due to mechanical strain presumably.
No wonder only 0.2R over the inner coil , it is .78mm diameter wire. 3 amps
of audio ac expected ? , I can see 0.6mm wire going back there ,or whatever,
for 1 layer of same number of turns
1 and a part layers , the part layer had ruckled under the tape allowing
the thin wire turns to drop off at the ends , hence grabbing on counting
off, and pushing radially over the wire lead-out, especially as a few part
turns to take up the recess from the thick wire part turn. Surprisingly no
obvious punch through between primary and secondary (which is which in this
circumstance?) as ruckling had allowed fine wires to touch thick wires it
would seem, bypassing the intended interlayer tape
