ˆ 5. Wind 6 windings on the other side of the core, going in the opposite di-
rection. See the drawing to see how we do this. If we went in the hole
starting from the bottom, and then worked our way to the top, we will re-
peat that on the other side. Ideally we want a mirror image of the first set
of windings. An absolute perfect mirror will give us the best possible per-
formance.
ˆ 6. You can tape down the other side’s windings now if you wish. It may
look sloppy, but it sure helps!
ˆ 7. Take the wires on one end of the binocular core, and twist them to-
gether tightly. We want this twist to apply some tension to the wires to
hold windings in place. Solder these two wires together. You will find that
if given enough heat, the insulation will melt from the wires allowing for the
solder to flow.
ˆ 8. Place one of the bus wires you bent in the first step into each hole, and
then hold down to the position on the main board into which this will be
installed. Verify that the bus wires will solder OK to the main board without
