when you took the bridge out did the ceramic move a bunch?
No, the three I tried this on the ceramic bowl seemed to stay in place. BUT, i just tried this on an 801 and it seems the glue holding everything in place did break a bit...I say a bit because it still doesn't move easily. I tugged a bit on the ceramic bowl...it doesn't want to come out but it is moving around against the steel mesh a bit. Just a bit of wiggle to it.

I scraped the coil on the TW atty I first modded as well, but with tweezers and then rinsed the atty with some distilled water. I used pure grain alcohol (Everclear) to dry it.

I did it! I had two gold banded 510 attys that I got the first part of June. One is amazing. I use it daily and it bellows vapor and has great flavor. I just really hope I am not jinxing my amazing atty! That's 6 months!!!
The other one, ewww. I never could get it work very well, every time I grabbed it I just got frustrated and threw to the back of my pile. Been doing that for 6 months, so when I read this thread I new exactly what atty needed to be disected.
It really did help make it useable. It would never top my amazing atty. But I would definitely not be afraid to grab it and go now.
Thanks! Great idea!! Great instructions and easy to do, too!

ive been vaping without an bridge for over 1 month , due to my lack of suppliers for 510 and it worked wonders , however ive melted 2 carts because of my stupidity and they are dead now , well not dead but i think the melted plastic its somewhere beneath the coil,
so and A+ for this method , however i recommend it only for drippers and you have to get used a bit to this method because the posibility to flood your atty its bigger

I remove fiberglass right away with a new atty. Is that bad?

It depends. If you don't plan on using filled carts then it's fine but I wouldn't remove the wicking until performance starts to drop. When you do it becomes a dripping specific atomizer.
