Subject: [EE] Coil winding - ideas?

PICers,
I'm winding a coil for a pot core inductor. I's for a flyback oscillator,
the
secondary will be about 500 -> 1000T of really fine wire. Winding the thing
by
hand is a //major//drudge. You need to put a little tension on the wire to
get
a tight pack but it's sooo easy to break. 

Any ideas re making things a bit easier/quicker? I was thinking maybe some
sort
of bobbin arrangement where you can turn a wheel to wind it on?
Thanks - Debbie
