Rolling your own inductors...

Well, I've got my wire (14aug and 12aug) to roll my required inductors. But my question is, what is the best way to go about doing this? I mean, it's pretty tough wire and all, and to get it perfect is damn near impossible the ways I tried it. Are there any special techniques that'll give better results? What way do you guys use? Thanks.

For thicker wire like your 12/14 gauge; it's very difficult if not impossible to get the windings tight enough without using a machine winder.

Also it's pretty handy to have an impedance bridge to ensure the accuracy of the the values.
