The actual coil. It's all good just a bit of me whining about them springing open. As for kanthal that stuff just stays where you put it, I don't use it though.
Sloppy framed staple also my software for compressing images is not working properly so I had to shrink the .... out of it. Anyways using 40g is a ..... I usually like my Clapton wrap to be very tight and uniform. With 36 this is fairly easy and even 38 while harder I seem to have gotten the knack of. However this 40g kept snapping if I even put close to my normal tension on it and as you can see these are pretty damn sloppy
Edit
If anyone has any tips for working with 40g I'm all ears 8-/

Yeah. Float the ribbon between the frames. Make sure it spins butter smooth.
Put the spool in a ziplock bag and hold it to clapton. The bag acts as a lubricant so you can put tension on it without breaking it.
I stay about 1' away from the core and go full speed. The higher gauge the wrap is the easier it is to overlap or get spaces so stay perpendicular the whole time.
If you use LV wire it will be very difficult to get a perfect wrap. It's down to luck really.
Yes. It's crap wire and it's spooled very poorly.
This happens to every spool:
There's too much good wire out there to put up with that.

Ouch. I bought some cheap 38g SS on amazon and it snags every so often but not that bad.
That might be part of my problem who do you recommendYes. It's crap wire and it's spooled very poorly.

Also thank you so much for the tips 8)

If your wire isn't coming off the spool very smoothly I'd say that is part of the problem.

Coil dump ftw!
That looks really nice but can't tell what's all going on with it. What are the specs on it.
Claptoned .4 ribbon paralled fused clapton. 28g cores 34g staggs 36g wraps...
I only use a phone to take pictures. I tried a usb microscope but it lacks sharpness.
