Holy Cow! What a nice looking coil winding machine. From the photo that looks like a precision engineered piece - something seldom seen in todays disposable marketplace.
I knew an old EE who was also a ham radio operator par excellence - a master radio craftsman - he would wind his own transformers and coils - by hand! I'll bet he would have really enjoyed that winder in his shack.

I think we have to face the fact that at some point every component will fail, will there be any Flybacks that will work when they are 100 years old? It seems doubtful even under ideal conditions.
Ultimately collectors/restorers are going to have to learn to rebuild, repair and even fabricate unobtainable parts. Some sets are worth the cost of doing so now, others may be in the future.
