Pickup Winder

For a long time I have wanted to build something cool with a Raspberry Pi but never could figure out a project that really interested me. Recently I was looking at guitar pickup winders and realized that it would be really fun to build my own custom pickup winder myself that I could enhance as much as I want. So I have started down the path to building my own pickup winder utilizing the Raspberry Pi.


To start off I bought all of the following to determine what I needed and how to make it work as I had never really built anything with the Pi prior to now.

  • Raspberry Pi 4 4GB
  • Pulse Train HAT
  • Nema 17 Stepper Motor
  • Stepper Motor driver
  • Meanwell 24V power supply
