I broke my daily watcher! help please

I just did the stupidist thing ever. My 1955 Majestic 21 inch console was working great, but I felt I needed to touch up the VHF oscillator slug for channel 3. Well the slug started to jam up and I continued to turn. Busted the coil. Why did I mess with the TV today?!?!?! Arrrg.

This set uses a turret type tuner. If you look at the pictures I attached you can see how I busted the coil. Its the strip for channel 3, the only one I use! It looks like the wire is wound on cardboard. THe first winding gor chewed up when the slug jammed up in the cardboard, and insulation is missing.

Can someone rewind this for me? I'm sure its not too hard, but I don't have the time. The TV has been a great performer until I got board and tried to fix something that wasn't broken.

Thanks for any help!
