Next coil, press the decimal button and it's reset. (remember that most calculators turn themselves off if they're idle for more than 5-6 minutes....so best not to take long breaks while winding a coil)</B></I></div> <div> <I><B><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Symb075c00b700f000663300.gif" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">                       * * * *   </B></I></div> <div> <I><B><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Symb075c00b700f000663300.gif" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"> Look for updates on this project ....like pictures of the actual project completed !!
