Another way to try is to secure one end of the wire in a sturdy vice,
put the other end through the hole in your former, lean against the wire
with your body weight to get some tension, the roll the former in your
hands to wind the wire while using your weight to keep the tension. I've
used this up to 4.5mm (3/16") dia. wire, but it needs to be soft.
