    I can totally relate to this one Lox, just getting in my truck I have a toolbag, paperwork bag, lunchbox and 1 gallon(yes you read that right) coffee pot; so for me carrying a ton of extra gear and finding a place for it is a challenge. I still vape on a few different mods at work, but when my...

    Yes, I'm ok. Only person in the vehicle, now I get to try and stay out of jail and keep a job of some kind. And yes, there was alcohol involved.

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    I get something similar E, I end up using the bend from locking the wire into to the pin vise and work in a bend to the negative side that helps center the coils. And then like Mac, I adjust gently with the shoulder of a screwdriver to keep them in line.

    Thanks Top. Just a quick update, stress tests suck lol

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    I completely follow that line of logic, when the dr's are done for the day I have a quick experiment... once I pick up my new coil jig, that is. Sadly the pin vise wouldn't hold with adequate tension simply "in hand", I expect that it will do just fine when supported on both sides in the frame...

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    Mac, would you say that the lack of oxidation evident as coloring from a cued coil is due to lack of tension or proper geometry?

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    If i could figure out how to accurately gauge resistance before i wrapped them. I would give it a shot

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    Thanks for the tip, I'm going to try working with something similar for testing. My latest find, a Tesla Onslaught. 3 coils of flavor magnification and a snug draw. The build angle on the negatives is a bit wonky, hence the touchy build. An update on the great fishing reel hunt: I found a...

    E, how are you securing your wire to the weight? Vise grips?

    Top, You said you made an app, is there a simple way to do that? I've been looking to make one for quite a while.

    No, according to the tests it was small but they're going to do a full cardiac work up coming up to see what damage was done. And yes, lifestyle changes are coming... some

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    I just recently hit the hardware store here and they had a good variety. Just be sure to do the SAE to metric conversion before you buy!

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    Just a quick look at the coils from last night after modifying my pin vise set up with a longer rod and making some adjustments. And here is the best fly reel I found for the price at Cabella's, the Wind River reel...
