How to Wind a Coil Spring on the Metal Lathe
#19
Willie, I used to wind solder 'refills' using a variable-speed drill and a mandrel I made by putting a piece of rubber tubing on a length of 1/4" threaded rod. The tubing is held by washers and nuts at both ends. You tighten the nuts, causing the tubing to expand. When you're done winding, you loosen a nut and the roll of solder slides right off.

If you can't get one, make one.
