The trick here is to wrap directly from a roll. Take a fresh roll of saran-wrap, and cut the roll into thin rolls of 11-12 mm width using a box-cutter. Pick out the cleanest straightest roll and discard the rest. When you want to wrap a reed, wrap directly from the roll, controlling the tension with your fingers as you wrap, in much the same way as you use ptfe plumbers' tape.
