Making 12 volt generator field coils

[ndnchf]

Ford generator field coils have become very expensive lately, and in some cases hard to find. I needed a set of '39 - '54 style12v generator field coils. So this morning's project was to make a set. Each coil was wound with 275 turns of 21 gauge magnet wire. They were then wrapped, terminals soldered on and then connected together. Its a lot of work to make them by hand one at a time. But the result is worth it.
