Solid State "Synchro Coil".

[Bob Smith]

@ Synchro,
So you're basically wiring the two toroids the same way you'd wire up a series-wound bifilar coil? 
If this is the case, you're saying that the two toroids are essentially cancelling out one another's magnetic fields and producing longitudinal vectors?

Do you this would be possible with a single trifilar-wound toroid (pulled out of a power supply, I think)? My idea was to connect end B of wire 1 to end A of wire 2 and possibly use the third wire as a pickup coil.

 No they are in parallel wound the same way in parallel it looks like. Much better shot. Got the online tool to do the zoom and focus, had to crop it in paint though. Sorry for all the tries to get it right.

This shot looks like the wind starts at the right wire. The wind direction goes counter clockwise when looking at the toroid through the hole from smallest toroid to largest. Both look to be wound in the same direction. Just where the thinnest gauge starts going around the toroid the end would be directly behind that. That is where the smaller gauge wire goes in the middle and through the inner hole and continues to the back of the larger toroid and joins with the thicker gauge wire from the back. So these winds are exactly the same and soldered in parallel then soldered to the lead in wires.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Jbignes5
That's a different animal from what I understood it to be.

Any time... I learned a few things though in this process especially image processing. This opens up a few more possibilities in figuring out these kind of things. Thanks for the opportunity to help out.

If you are wondering how I figured out the winding it is very simple. Using such thick wire makes the winding split where it starts and ends. The smaller toroid has the split below the right smaller lead in to the toroid. The smaller gauge where the end wind goes to the back toroid is loose. Look at the gap and you will see it.

The site I used was imagiris.com Pretty good software and it is free!

@Jbigness5,


                 Any way you can upload a schematic of the toroid windings?
