Nope - Don't worry about the toroids.
The K1 manual is excellent - has drawings and very clear explanations.

I actually think winding toroid is fun!  I don't get what all the hllabaloo
is about.

As far as tinning the leads - the way I do it is use an exacto knife to
scrape off the insulation.  I find it to be easier and more positive than
the hot-solder method.  In order for the solder method to work, the iron
must be hot - hotter than I choose for actual soldering.

If I can do it anyone can.  20-600 vision, thick bifocals, and colorblind to
boot.

Have fun!
