The biggest problem is going to be counting 1800 turns! I can make a jig
to
wind this on my bench lathe and incorporate a magnet/Hall sensor to
advance
a counter.
Measure the size of the finished coil (circumference) then compute the
length of wire needed to complete the 1800 turns and don't bother
counting? There is a formula for more complicated applications that
takes into consideration the wire's diameter, as the coil's
circumference does change slightly as it is wound.
That's how I figured 1800 turns.
