The re-sult is that when the wiresare cut off there are about 6 ins. or 8 ins. more slack on thewires than if the wires were cut off directly from the end of theformer. This slack of 6 ins. or 8 ihs. is just what is needed tomake the first quarter turn around the former when winding thenext coil. As a result all of the unreeling is done by machinepower and none by hand. FIGS. 4 AND -PLAN AND SIDE ELEVATION OFBAKE OVEN stre
