I think its better to keep you all informed of all spurious nonsense,anyway I took aTransformer,two in fact apart one was out of a 16v Motherboard French Telecom MINITEL(Internal modem also) and the other was out of a Black and white monitor(Samsung) Anyway the one out of the monitor was wound with enamled copper wire with a second winding inside the ,one size larger diameter,copper wire(enamled also). However the transformer out of the MINITEL was wound again with the two different thickness wire this time in a parallel fashon(not inside ,just side by side) Keep you informed of any other developments--okee dokey-- Dave the snake!

I really needed to know that. It has really made my day!!
Considering that MINITEL is obsolete, nobody uses B&W monitors any more and PC power supplies don't use transformers,it's really useful information.
BTW. I took an old motor car engine apart some time ago. The valves where controlled by pushrods operated by a cam driven directly by gears from the crank shaft. Just thought you would like to know.
