| 1335 | Measure the length of the wires that the motor coils were soldered to, from the motor all the way to the plug that connects to the tower: about 40 cm. I'm planning to leave this much NbTi free on both sides of the coil, in case we want to use NbTi all the way to the tower. |
| 1350 | Tape down one of the NbTi wires to one of the motor spools, with 40 cm of spare wire extending past the tape.  |
| 1405 | Wrap the spare length around the shaft of the winding setup and tape it down to keep it out of the way.   |
| 1415 | Finish winding the wire onto the spool  |
| 1605 | I should have taped down the final end of the wire before removing the spool from the winder. Some wire fell loose from the spool, and it got terribly tangled up with the other free end. Took two hours to untangle it. Finally taped both ends onto the spool.   |
