I came across Steve Conovers book and used the technique he had described. Worked great!!!
So many times I have come across the proverbial "rats nest" of twisted brass wire, pieces that have broken and just rewound around something nearby, I have even seen them pulled over a wrapped around another arbor, sometimes just cut off and left. The spring wires are key to proper function of several different parts in many clocks.
So, I decided to make a video on how I wind these along with the "apparatus" I made for doing it. I hope this video gives you some ideas about how to make these spring wires. To be able to make a nice new spring wire in just a few minutes will cost pennies and make a overhaul on a clock movement "just right"

Though this is a rather simple task it is important and does not require any fancy tooling.
If you have a different "apparatus" please share.
Thank you and have fun, William
