Default Re: Coil winding advice

"Wire for coil winding should be taken off the reel on it's axis" Why? AFAIK the wire was put on the reel horizontally, if the reel turns as the wire is taken off this is that process in reverse. Taking it off the end of the reel will put twists in it, albeit minor ones, which may or may not make a small difference.
