While waiting for the parts from digikey to come... I figure i would jump start on the project.

I made a coil today using the info on the homemade coil site. But I dont quite understand this :
" Use some coax as cable to the plug.
Make 2 short pieces of wire, one red and one black.
Solder toghether the screen of the coax, the black wire, and both start ends of the windings.
Solder the core of the coax to the end of the thin winding.
Solder the end of the thick winding to the red wire. "

This is what I understood from reading it:

" use some left over wire as cable to the plug.
Make 2 short pieces of wire, one red and one black.
Solder together the ??????, the black wire, and both ends of the windings *Which windings ? the larger wire or the smaller wire ?
Solder one end of the thick winding to the red wire."


To clarify it more, the coil has a total of 4 wires: 2 from the larger wire coil, and 2 from the smaller wire coil.

Could someone tell me in simplier terms ?
