Since I read an article in "Hints and Kinks" (I think) on using a hook to
pull the wire through the toroid I've always used a crochet hook (that may
need translating into American) from my XYL's selection. You need to use a
metal one, the hook pulls off if you use a plastic one, but they are nicely
rounded so they don't damage the enamel. It makes winding neat toroids much
more straightforward then trying to "push" the end of the wire through the
hole.
