I would probably buy or make a version of the schatten winder as a first port of call. It’s basic but will get you into hand winding. Then you just need to wind and test a few dozen until you start to get some consistency

With that in mind....probably a non-starter.
drill press: love it. I watched a video last night on converting a sewing machine into a coil winding machine which has given me the bug.
I agree though - for the moment probably best to leave the pros to it.

A basic one wouldn't be that hard to make. Personally for something basic, I'd make a holding jig that fits directly onto a stepper motor, use a cheap stepper driver controlled via an Arduino for speed control (Arduino means you can use a potentiometer for speed control without much effort), add an LCD for rotation counting, and through in a bit coding.
Other option would be a small DC motor (would likely have to be a geared motor to get sensible RPM), a basic PWM controller, and potentiometer. Simpler on the electric side, but you could add a basic pulse counter to get the number of turns.
