Damn, thats a nice set of illustrated instructions. I think I'll try tying
some up. But why so specific about 'leading' the copper wire turns with the
thread? Seems to me that wrapping the thread to the head, then twisting the
wire would have the exact same result.

The theory is that the bobbins weight will maintain the tightness
between each successive wire turn. On small wire I can see this being
a real factor, but with medium wire I doubt it has an effect, unless
of course, your bobbin weighs in at five pounds.
