SBG- slow motion metal detector

Hey, do you have a chance to share the file for the print you made for the iconic coil? I'm thinking of printing it too.
Can you share with us how you do the coil winding part? I'm curious about how you wind your coil.

Sure, no problem, but I still don't have a solution.
I'm still thinking about coil 3D drawing and printing..
When I come up with something I'll post it here.
...
As far as coil specs; Sasho already gave the specs:

[TurkAlperenebeg]

I know the features are provided by Sash, I was just wondering what kind of coil winding mechanism you developed.
I guess I couldn't explain myself.

Years before I put up together a PDF explaining my (at the time) methods.
Then some time later Don Bowers made even better PDF with more details.
Nothing much significant changed in the meantime, principles are the same.
Except that now I have better conditions and 3D printers, so I can draw and 3D print formers for winding and coil housings, parts etc.
I will attach both here:

My 3D printer has a working volume of 220x220x250mm. But in practice I always use 200x200 bed area.
Ideally would be to 3D print the "OO" coil housing...200x200mm.
But how do I know the exact overlap area in advance?
For precise balance.
Maybe Aziz could help with his magic here?!

Just ask the AI. AI can tell you the answer in seconds.
I would take the whole 20x20 cm printing space for a rectangular coil. So total coil witdh = 20 cm (with overlap). 20 cm coil height.

Overlap approx. 3.0 - 3.2 cm, coil width approx. 11.6 cm, coil height 20 cm.

Yes, I asked the AI to calculate the dimensions of the "channel" for winding such a wire and 5x5mm is about the "safe" dimension...
I can start with the 3D drawing...

This is so nice.

I had really a moment of a second the feeling and expericence of AI intelligence during my chat with AI yesterday.
The AI combines a problem in a way, which is equivalent or even better to human intelligence.

We are maybe closer to have Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI).
This is really scary.

AI is really perfect tool in electromagnetics.

I am still in a deep stage of disbelief.
Because for complex tasks, AI still does not show enough accuracy and reliability, it tends to hallucinate heavily and generate a bunch of (sometimes dangerous) errors.
But it is very good for "one-dimensional" tasks, provided that it is given a very good prompt.
Let's say... that AI is still in the stage of a very advanced calculator.
It helps in reducing the time involved in calculations and approximations.
However, when drawing comics... as you can see; AI went way beyond all expectations, I'm delighted.
...
I'm trying to draw a 3D "tradeoff" (quality/speed/good design) for winding "OO" coils.
This will be a collapsible and detachable "jig" for winding coils.
That's a theory for now, we'll see what practice will show.

I suspect there is a typo; "r/4" should be "r/2".

I agree with you.
But I am methodical. I'm going slowly one step at a time.
First I will make "OO" according to the author's advice and then I will think about "DD" or any another shape.
Anyways, the original author's "OO" will come in handy as a reference.

This is very useful info, thanks!
Instead of AI hallucinations, this seems much more real to me.
