I know the following: Current flow through the coil, number of wraps,

WHAT I WANT TO DO: determine the correct wire size and coil wrap count

hopefully with less
wraps and hopefully thicker wire to allow me to handle it by hand, the

You could simply measure it.

You must have missed this part:

"I know the following: Current flow through the coil, number of wraps"...

I guess my brain-pan skipped over that, because if he knows that already,
then what's the question about?

What's he really trying to do? Or what does he really want to know?

Thanks,
