I took one turn off all of them because 
I counted the first turn as a turn, not 2.
So I had 1 extra turn on every core.

I am still in the coil world, where a TURN is a turn....

I did count the inside wires and had one extra.

That did not really seem to cause problems though,
the rig seems to work the same.
