What's In Your Coil Build Tool Kit?

[Ghostin215]

So I was just wondering what you guys have in your took kit when it comes to rebuilding your coil/build decks.

I i have a 2, 3, and 4 mm drill tips, wire cutter, dental scraper, and precision screwdrivers, both flat and phillips.

What do you guys have in your tool kit?

 

[Braaapp]

Mandrels: 1.2mm 18ga needle, 1.587mm and 1.984mm drill bits (1/16", 5/64"). 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm shaft screwdrivers.
Tools: Small needle nose, diagonal cutter, and pliers. Safety wire pliers for twisted builds. Compound lever nail clipper. Phillips, flat, and hex key drivers. Butane torch.

 

[sedition]

Mine is getting smaller and smaller. A couple of the little 2mm mini blue screwdrivers to wrap around, allen key for the Origen hex screws, small tweezers for shaping coils and pulling cotton, wire cutters and scissors.

 

[Paramaniac413]

Precision screwdrivers, Alan key, hook nose hemostats, wire cutters, 26g kanthal, wicking, tasting wicking, collapsible embroidery scissors, Igo-W+ (for tasting), the coil jig sits on my desk right now.

Nail clippers, needle nose pliers, cuticle pusher, a screwdriver, paper clips, 14g syringe needle, artistic wire coiling gizmo...

Debating on getting a flush wire cutter....

 

[93gc40]

Coiling box contains: baggie rinsed cotton balls, bunch of precision screwdrivers, ohm meter, Jig, kanthal, scissors. That's all the box contains because that is all the tools needed to make a coil, in a hurry. Everything else, I might use, is in the regular tool box or on the work bench.

 

[MCCOY300]

Flush cut pliers, Kurt coiled and tweezers

 

[cinetrope]

Coil-master, tweezers, six piece precision screwdriver set, AWG 28 Kanthal, AWG 28 and AWG 30 Ni200, nail clippers, mini scissors, organic cotton balls, KGD, ohm meter, and a handful of charms from Alice in Vapeland juice bottles.

 

[jrfhoutx]

Spools of different gauge Kanthal, wire cutters, needle nose pliers, snub nose and hook nose tweezers, precision screw driver set, USA ohmmeter, old mech mod, old power drill, different cottons, butane torch, ruler, and some random other junk. hardly ever use the torch though...

 

[greatimp81]

So I have a Heat Vape coil jig, a Tobocca coil plate jig, ceramic tip tweezers, bandage shears, Xeuron flush cutters, kanthal, nichrome, and an ohm reader.

 

[3mg Meniere]

Flush cutters, knitting needle for coiling and storage of pre-made (I do ten at a time), bandage scissors, hemostat, eye-glasses screwdrivers, 32g kanthal, dremel with hook attachment, a baggie of cellucotton, cigarette lighter, vamo, needle-nose pliers.

 

[Monotremata]

26/29/32 gauge spools of Kanthal, tweezers, toenail clippers for cutting wire, couple of keychain screwdrivers that came with my Kayfun Lites, crapload of the little blue screwdrivers that come with everything, Coil Master, my old hand drill I used to wrap with that now has a paperclip in it for when I want to do twisted wire, pliers, several jewelers screwdrivers to install the coils, allen wrench for my Bonsai's posts, a Stanley flathead screwdriver for when the internals of my Kayfun 4s come apart on their own, a couple of hook thingys used for knitting for placing cotton wick in my RDAs, some scissors I accidentally kept from the ex's makeup bag that seem to cut cotton better than anything Ive used, and an old toothbrush to clean coils when I dry burn..

Think theres still a bunch of old used coils floating around in the bottom too, I have no idea why I ever saved em but ya never know if a new build is gonna suck and you just want the old one back hehe.

 

[DaveSignal]

kanthal = 24, 22 gauge (also have 28 and 26, but I only use these when doing some kind of more complicated wire)
nichrome = 24 gauge
(100 foot spools)

large bag of japanese cotton squares
2mm screwdriver
good wire clippers (not toenail clippers)
good screw drivers, hex wrenches (not little blue screwdrivers that come with everything)
good needle nose pliers
good hairdressing scissors

and tons of other stuff. But the above listed are the only things that I use every time I am building.

Debating on getting a flush wire cutter....

I saw someone using the flush wire cutters so I thought I needed them and, honestly, they come in handy. But, while waiting for them in Vapemail, I learned to use the nail clippers and stress breaks with efficiency. The flush snips really help to get under a coil to snip a positive leg on four post decks.

I mainly use a cheap small screwdriver set (3mm - 1.4mm), tweezers, toe nail clippers, small sewing scissors, and a multiuse pair of pliers (needle nose). Ohm meter, multimeter and intelicore i2 batt charger on hand at all times.
I have various types of wicking: Japanese Cottons, Raw Texas Cotton, Cotton Bacon v2, Silica Rope.
And a couple of types, in various sizes, of wire:
Nichrome 80 - 22, 26 & 28 gauge
Kanthal A1 - 24, 26, 28, 30

At times i will use a drill, large and small pliers, various screwdrivers, push pins and the tools that come with the rda/rta/rba kits.

I use laptop computer boxes with foam inserts to hold juices and mods and a compartmentalized tackle box for all of the vape tools.

 

[abn75]

Hum i only have a small kit, the kuro coiler with 2.5 and 3 mm bit, three blue screw drivers, precision needle nose pliers, wire cutter, tweezers, scissor, small dental pick, small bag of rayon and a roll each of 24 and 26 gauge kanthal. Plus ohm meter of course.

I was going to purchase a coil master kit for $40, but I just saw that kit that Paramaniac413 is using for abt $27 on Ebay. Probably jst get that, then a Mandrel or precision Screwdrivers, but do I need that if I buy some Coil jigs (pic below)
I tried looking up what r the most comon used Tools, but all everyone said was Kanthal & Cotton!!! So this post is helpful, proly dont need as much Crap as I thought

I bought an Ohm meter, but I just realized it doesn't have Instructions, so I haven't Figured out how to use the Volt Meter on it...

I really wished there was a Tool check off list !

 

[Monotremata]

$40?? You can get them anywhere from like $13-20!! If you get it, you really won't need anything else. I haven't touched my drill bits since I got my Coil Master. Took me like 30 seconds to wrap a new coil for my Magma this morning. I got mine for like $12 but I'm pretty sure its a knock off. Mines one of the ones that came in a box, but the actual Coil Master website shows it comes in a blister pack, and with a bag to keep it all in.

But then again RBA Supplies, who are supposed to be one of Coil Masters legit sellers has pics of the boxed ones too so who knows..
