Men don't have the patience to become coil winders. This job has lots of tension. Each day is a challenge and you have to learn to relax, otherwise you can break a wire. It took me three weeks to wind my first thirteen loops. These coils are part of a computer recording head. Tri-Valley Area, Northern California
