On above build you would probably have seen better results in both vapor and flavour by having the round wire claptoned around each individual main strand and then having the ribbon fused around the two strands, you would create more crevices for the juice to move in and around. With the way you have made it the only thing the fused round wire is really doing is holding the parallels together, also the ribbon wire isn't very wide, it's hugging your main wire to tightly to create any crevices and make a difference, you could go with a wider ribbon which would kind of create scoops once wound onto your mandrel of choice.
See in this pic how the ribbon creates gaps where your juice will want to go, the juice always wants to run to the source of the heat which would be these little pockets that are surrounding the main wire..
I don't mean to undermine you but this build above isn't a Staple coil, it's a glorified ribbon build with a fused stagger over the top. A Staple coil has the ribbon sitting on its edge, it's a Huge upgrade from having the ribbon wire just laid on it's face against the wick.
Boden i couldn't let you walk away thinking that you had made your mind up on the performance of one with your own interpretation of how it should be built, you need to try the real Mccoy!
Here's a pic of a Naked framed Staple coil, but it's mainly to show you the orientation of the ribbons..
Another thing that i think is appropriate to talk about as regards the fancy coils is that ive been finding cotton superior to rayon, i find that rayon supplies the juice to quickly and makes the pulls hotter and even shorter, it's fine in most situations where the rayon is being fed continually from a source but cotton lends itself much better.
I'm quite adapt at using rayon, ive used it for a long time with single strand type coils when i had no chance of making a fancy coil but i had to allow for the way it supplies the juice.
A good guide as to wick the Hotter fancy coils would be the following video, although i use ... cotton pads as apposed to cotton balls and i don't tend to have the wick tails as long or bushed, i normally go for enough wick tail to reach the deck or source.
