Abstract
A method of winding a flexible core includes forming a flexible core member having a first end portion, a second end portion and a plurality of teeth each having a central axis with the plurality of teeth being arranged in a substantially linear array. The method also includes manipulating the flexible core member into an inverted core form having an outer portion and an inner portion with the plurality of teeth extending out from the outer portion away from the inner portion, positioning a winding member including an amount of wire adjacent one of the plurality of teeth, and rotating the flexible core member about the central axis of the one of the plurality of teeth. The method further includes applying wraps of the wire to the one of the plurality of teeth.
