Thank you god sir, very much appreciated! The Stilair V3 has grooves in the deck under the screws, but I had not seen this RDA before cutting mine. I'm all about the simple fixes that make a device go from good to great like you say.
Amazon has a 25 piece set for $14.71 Amazon.com: Beadalon 25-Piece Spool Tamer SetThank you god sir, very much appreciated!

Even everyday thing that were not designed for Vapers specifically like the Beadalon wire tamers. Keeps wire on the roll and has an easy feed system. Pick them up at Michaels and make your spools manageable.
That works great too, but the spool tamers allow you to feed wire as you need it. Making applying tension to your wrap easy as well.To hold my wire on the spool, I took an old eraser, broke it in half, and wedge it into the spool. Quick, easy, FREE, and works every time! Sorry, no pics!
Are you part of the Tensioned Micro Coil group? I ventured in there a few times but thought it was too much work.
Never had any flooding issues, I have forgot to open the juice control a few times and got a nasty dry hit in the beginning.
Certainly I use tension in making my coils, but I prefer the speed of the jigs I use over hand coiling. Consistent, FAST, coils in a jiffy. Works for me. The mechanical advantage of the jig adds more tension than I could add by hand, myself. I do have some friends on the Tension Micro coil site, but don't visit very often. I believe that whole thing started off with rebuilding one of the popular replacement coil atomizers, and grew into a philosophy. I tend to find what works for me, and then stop looking for the latest and greatest, preferring reliability and repeatability over all else. Different strokes and all that. I never thought TMC was too much work, it's just I make coils in bunches and prefer the speed of the jig I built.
Thanks, I apply tension by hand and I might just have to visit that thread again for a bit. Jigs are a great thing but I have no place to use one. I don't need any more of "Those Vaping Things" around and in the open.Certainly I use tension in making my coils, but I prefer the speed of the jigs I use over hand coiling.

Wow.
If that had been the first coil jig I ever saw I'd have stopped right there & had second thoughts about wrapping my own coils!I'm sitting here trying to decide which is more over engineered, Bills coil jig or the Kay Fun4
