Four layers of 92 turns on and three more to go.
Still a very slow process, but getting quicker as I get more practice.
Once again cutting it fine. 600mm left after winding two layers from my 52.5 meter length.

The mylar certainly adds to the overall volume as to get half overlap around the outside gives at least three layers thick around the inside ... so of course there's not as much room between turns for the next layer to settle partly down between the previous layer windings.
Hopefully there will be enough room for the secondary. Still on track I think.
I was able to speed up my mylar winding when I realised I have a large spring clamp to hold the mylar so I can use two hands to wind out the next section.
It's a workout to use one handed, but saves a heap of time and frustration.
