Buy without regrets... well regret that you didn't buy more of them!
Recommend seller! Be sure to watch their Youtube videos since they are also quite informative!
The Dude makes great antenna winders. I have bought 10+ and keep coming back. I’ve used the SO239 and BNC, full size and mini. They are all of good quality and stand up to being thrown in bags and deployed. I love the color options. I’ll be using my most recent purchase to make some linked dipoles for friends.
Perfect for my antenna project.
I’ve made four antennas already with this product and have been very satisfied. I just got ten more for a club build project and I’m very thankful for this reliable winder AND amazing service from The Dude! I highly recommend!

I keep buying more of these. Please send help since my wallet is hurting from all the toriods and winders I keep buying.
There are just too many winding techniques and ratios that I keep making more. Also might be worth keeping some as spares.
Ended up ordering more. USPS messed up on the shipment so it ended up going cross-country 3 times and taking slightly over 2 weeks to get to me, but that isn't the seller's fault.
Fits well with the 2643251002 and FT140 cores. The string line holes were perfect size for me to use speaker binding posts in them which gives be an array of different ways to attach the antenna line to it.
If you are going to use heat shrink on it, you are going to need to use 2.5 in diameter on it, which does start to warp the Velcro (aka hook & loop) mounts on it but I wasn't planning to use that anyways.
I ended up buying more since there are so many different ways to wind a toroid.
Great for antenna feed point assembly with or without baluns or transformers.
Quality products and great pricing
Great seller and fast shipper.
The best winder I've foud to date.
Great product nicely packaged. Seems to be good quality.. SO239 connector seems good quality. A little smaller than I anticipated. But not disappointed.
This is the perfect size for my 25ft Rybakov Vertical. 2 Thumbs up.
Very nice looking, solid product.
it's on my bench to build and I feel it will work perfectly
Good sturdy construction with lots of slots for transformer and wire options.
Like the item. It came as described.
Great item. I would definitely buy this again.
Great quality. I would definitely buy this again.
Sean is awesome. The winders are great. Second time buying. Very happy!
Great product. I enjoyed using it to build my own EFHW. The antenna works great and using the little coil I was able 40, 20, 15 and 10 meters right on the mark.
Please indicate the dimensions in the description. Great product and one of the two have been completed. Thanks and 73's!!!
