    I've been throwing every build at the aromamizer and they've all wicked great horizontal, vertical or across. Got an alien in there and it's firing very evenly and efficiently at 60 watts. Nice dense warm flavor. Not my prettiest, but wasn't my main focus. Edit 28g x3 core / 36g alien

    Thanks man and yes I use swivels and I can only do 2 core for some reason. I pulled off 1 3 X 26g / 2 x36g interlock but it was hideous. It just seems to work better with 2 core and especially with the stitch like Tom said they do seem to wrap themselves. The stitch kind of leads it all in the...

    Wow @SLIPPY_EEL , you're just killing it with those braids mate. @G-weezy is that an alien stitched with ribbon? Regardless, it looks great and probably has so many juice crevices it vapes like a champ.

    2 core is a lot like 3. Just wrap it around a piece of 24g and don't stretch it as much as you would a 3 core. It took me a few tries to get the 2 core stretched right.

    My first attempt at a hybrid coil. 3x26g core 2/36g alien wraps X 2/36g fused Clapton wraps X 2 36g alien wraps Not the prettiest to look at but I'll get it seemless with some more practice. First 3 wraps went smooth then downhill from there. :evil:

    I use nylon pliers to come in and out of it. Would you believe a customer said" damn you really screwed up that alien coil, it triangled on you"....:| And yeah they don't want the other roll back.

    You're always going to be your own worst critic. That coil is $$$. Sean from LV got ahold of me today and shipped another spool.

    The spool is damaged and warped so the wire is taking the shape of the warp. I feel like as it unspools there will be a bump right where the damage is. If you look at the pics you can see the wire is dented.

    I just picked up a chasing hammer and block from Michaels for $15.00 total. They're having a 60% off sale. Usually the setup would cost $50
