Alan,
Are you sure you are turning it back to the starting position each time
you start a new wire?

It seems to me,
As replys abound,
We get more confused
With every round.
 
Coils or loops,
Which do we mean?
One goes on the pin,
The other goes on .um . the other pin.
 
BTW IMHO the Sciortino is a great (expensive) tool when it works, which
for me is about half the time. Never have figured out why it sometimes
does not. It's like splicing a string: Sometimes I can do it in the dark
with one finger in my nose, other times I stare stupidly at the ends and
can't remember what goes which where or why.

No, Harry, I've never broken a string with one of those, (they're
perfect when you're not removing the tuning pin on bass strings, though,
aren't they?)
    We were referring to the coil makers for single strings on hitch
pins.
Kevin.

Does the warning earlier on the list about crank coilers apply to the
Sciortino Insta-coiler?
Thanks from someone who will always read the subject line "Pretty Darn
Frequently"
