I was wondering much the same a couple of days ago, when trying to figure out how Elecraft can offer built T1s for only 24 bucks more than the price of the kit. Most builders claim to have taken 6 hours to build it, which is 4 dollars an hour. The Toroid Guy is charging $18 just for a set of toroids for this kit. Presumably he doesn't use one of these machines.

I have a vision of a shed full of Chinese people busily building T1s for two dollars an hour. Am I right?

I hope.

I find the concept of a toroid-winding machine intriguing, and now it's got me
wondering just how it works.
