I am sensing that you do not need this coil mainly for current clamp calibration.
But I am unable to read your complex mind either. ;D

I have the expectation that this coil will boost 50Hz energy while it will significantly attenuate all frequencies over 400Hz (specific coil electrical bandwidth specifications).
This might proven to be the solution which I need, when using my Oscilloscope and current probe at measuring stand-by power of non resistive load.
So I am getting ready to explore this coil electrical behavior and or of any benefits, at another electrical application.

Even so, I will make this coil to be 100% exact copy of FLK 5500A/COIL, so to be also useful for current clamp calibration inspection. ;)
And regarding aesthetics it will look much better that this Russian project.

Kiriakos GR:
Critical work completed. :)

The Web-calculator did not helped much at giving me spacing numbers that work in my project.
So I did go 100% manual, lots of trial and error attempts at finding a spacing distance for Spirals spacer which works for me.
The outcome this is 49 slots.

I will call it as 99% success, and tomorrow I will move at the next step (no one he can imagine that I wasted ten hours just today).
Aesthetics these will be taken care at the end... ;)

Kiriakos GR:
Oh yes, this project moves ahead. :)
Not red but rather equal to cherry this is the description speaking of color's palette.

No matter of how I feel about moving forwards, the paint drying time this is specific.
About gaining increased paint hardness, I will have to wait for 24 hours, before the next step. ;)

gloss spray paint always takes longer so this to achieve hardness.
You better leave it to get dry for the entire weekend. ;)
