Pick up progress

I have a pair of humbuckers finished. I will be putting these into my friends guitar this weekend, for a trial run. Here are some pictures. I know, I need to get some of me actually winding. But it's kind of an involved process. One picture is of the pick ups potting. That is when you soak them in a combination of paraffin, and bees wax. This solidifies the wires inside. If one of the tiny wires inside is a little loose, the pick up can feedback.
