I haven't heard of a shuttle before...The descriptions were interesting to read. Thanks for the feedback.Basically, you reproduced the trick / method those fancy toroid winding machines use.
Now I have to compare....
My Toroid Winder Gizmo...
I created a 5" diameter plastic O ring with an outside U channel profile. 1st, The ring has a break (magician magic ring) which is twisted apart and put through the toroid. 2nd, a measured segment of wire is spooled onto the ring.
Finally, the ring is rotated to feed wire onto the toroid.
Hand control is required for ring rotation and maintaining wire tension.
Worked ok but it's tricky guiding the wire off the ring.. Did 200 turns on a toroid and it looks neat.
Maybe I reinvented the wheel. :)

Either you had your own machine shop or paid one to make that U-shaped O-ring.
