Thanks, Ron.  I seem to remember something about how critical it is that the turns not cross one another while one being looser than another had very little effect.

While winding this morning I remember our old family doctor who had been a lineman on his college football team.  He became a surgeon and did family practice because he enjoyed it.  My daughter split a place open next to her eyebrow when just a child and my wife watched as those huge sausage fingers put in the finest tiny stitches you could imagine.- it healed with no scarring.

I cannot wait to check out my work on the air -

That works well on larger toroids, but I found it didn't help much on small toroids. Still, the cost is minimal so you may as well give it a go.

A while back, maybe a month ago, rough guess, there was a good discussion on simple helps to wind toroids neatly and tightly. As I recall one of the suggestions was to use a crochet hook in the center of the toroid to hold windings in place as you added the next one.
