Why Cantex ?

Why Cantex ?

Their material is UV-stabilized for weathering strength in the changing climate of Northern Ohio. It also machines and drills consistently. The dielectric constant is the same from piece to piece, and the Cantex compound resists chalking. I've filled a dumpster with look-alike parts that failed to survive the coiling process at some point.

The new 6" flange is mounted to the original sheave. The 14" tube section on the right will serve as the connector between the head stock and the coil form. It's cut from a junk piece of schedule 80
tube. Normally it would be glued to the flange socket, but not in the case of 6" tubing.
