[Elecraft] K2: T6 bifilar winding

Hi all,

Quick question about the bifilar windings on the bifilar transformers like
T6. How critical is the twist in the two wires? When I did T6, I was unable
to get a terribly consistent winding of the two wires together. Build manual
says they should cross over about every 1/2", but some parts of the wires
ended up a little tighter than that, others less. On some of the windings
when I wound the core, they more or less didn't pass over each other at all
for one or two windings (tho they were adjacent). 

I'm assuming this is probably not super critical, but just curious.

I'm almost at the second part where you fire it up on 40 meters. If not this
evening probably tomorrow evening I'll be there.....
