Dropped on your channel by accident. Really enjoying your talks and worked examples. They are really useful for a Ham returning after a 10 year sabbatical.
I saw someone mount a wooden dowel pointed vertical that was tapered so the small ferrite (or iron) cores sat down on it and the core was simply lifted a bit with the wire as it was being wound up through the center. Very tidy. I'll be doing that from now on, as I too am fumble-fingered with small toroids. I'm sure it works best on small cores, but I think a larger tapered dowel might also work Ok on larger toroids like high-power baluns and the associated common-mode chokes.

Thanks for this, clearly and simply explained. Makes it seem possible for newbies to get their irons out!
