Home made pickups

Ok im starting in the world of the guitar tech and i want to do my own pickups.

Im building my own winder with an used driller but i need to know certain things as:

How many wounds should i be using for pickups?

Whats the diff between using different wires width and composition.

how much pressure should i use to get the wounds tight and not breaking the wire.

Ill apreciate real answers and not simply "youll need a lot of wounds" like some mod did b4 :scowl: ...

Thx alex.
