Bill ....
I am not sure what you meant my the coil forms having been separated and
the coil slightly spread.  I rewound one of my coils because the beam was
wrecked in an ice storm.  All of my coils were on a preformed structure
that looked like a big screw.  Pretty nice to wind the coil again.  There
was no way I could have "spread" those windings because they sat in the
"thread" of the coil form.  

By the way, Mosley will sell  you the parts for all the coils including the
wire so you can rework and rebuild your own.  They sold me a form and the
wire...I used the older parts as well to make it work.
