Materials

 * 1) 1 spool of 22 gauge solid magnetic wire
 * 2) Wire cutters
 * 3) Electrical tape
 * 4) Multimeter
 * 5) Power source (batteries)

Creating an extension wire for the forward lead
Cut an approximately three and a half inch section off from the spool of magnetic wire. If the magnetic wire is enamel coated then the enamel from each end must be removed to ensure a good connection.

Attaching Extension wire to forward lead
Now that the enamel has been removed from all ends, take one end of the extension wire and bend it into a hook, this hook shouldn't comprise of any more than a half an inch. The lead that protrudes from the center of the spool is the forward lead. Bend the forward lead into a hook. Hook together the hooks of the forward lead and the extension wire.--SeanShriner (discuss • contribs) 20:56, 14 March 2013 (UTC)



Finishing the coil
Make sure the extension wire then bends along the spool. Take a piece of electrical tape and place it over the interlaced hooks and the piece of the extension wire running along the spool.
