Not done quite right, sorry.The winding wire needs to be terminated into the lead outs properly, wrapped around the lead out 360 degrees, about three times, as was done in this pictured original construction, above, and on the Stancors.
I did four times around pre soldering. Will the winding wire take the stress of all the re-bending and not break ????
Tape over the original outer covering, moisture and safety, in the long term.
Above we can see above how Heyboer, certainly a different winder than Stancor, terminated into my double TCSS, without me telling them to do it that way !!
The three times wrap around is likely GOOD practice !! Live and learn.
Oh well, your new Hammond 159ZB ( ZB for zee best :-) !! ) was only $12.07 each.
