Not much really - go slow, be careful, and have a fair amount of wax handy to save your progress every so often...

It worked for my oscillator coil (my Fleetwood thread). The big thing is the number of turns and the direction in which you wind that need to match. In the case of my Fleetwood, I couldn't get the number of turns, so I opted to get the total length of wire, and wound it in as close to the same winding pattern as I could - and it worked!
