    Elongation Testing on resistance wire by static hanging weight

    Ok, so I got bored on a day off of work and decided to get geeky since I couldn't find the info I wanted online anywhere. Here's the results of a very basic test of the point at which a few gauges of wire begin to stretch: 28ga A1: 10-12lbs (1" stretch) 26ga A1: 20lbs (1.5" stretch) 24ga A1...

    Tensioned Micro Coils. The next step.

    I got tighter on the tolerances of the elongation test and am working on narrowing the percentage of elongation needed to hit the target adhesion rate. I'm going to test out some builds with varying weight to find the target and see what shakes out... more when I get it typed up.

    Same here, USS Roosevelt CVN-71. Bostswain's mate, master helmsman, decorative linework expert and SAR swimmer lol

    We do similar things with the large mooring lines used to tie up aircraft carriers and large ocean going cargo ships.

    I think we made it... *listens for the echo*

    Ok, I have kind of a monster post that I'm dying to drop that could explain both possibilities Russ... after shopping prepare for some science, kinda lol.

    Did we survive the jump? Anyone?

    I've thought about the same thing, I think it would be a matter of speed control. I wrap at approximately 1 wrap per second with the gizmo, I am not sure that you could control it that well with a drill

    Had I not tried it, I wouldn't have believed it... impressive stuff, no doubt.

    I'll have to grab a flickr account and shoot you a production vid later tonight, its pretty impressive

    Not easy, no. This not only crashes to the deck and brings down the house but the lack of sizzle after you take a pull is amazing. It will stand up to a 15 mph breeze and stay opaque at 0.24Ω and 80w!

    Mac, I think I caught up to what you've been saying with an end-to-end heating from the start and a slightly hotter center section after a few seconds. I tried to get it on film but it's hard to see. Also, I got a shot of the oxidation after a good dry-burning session with a...

    Mactavish, Sadly it's not bragging if you look at my last post http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=15614811 . Those took exactly 1 second per wrap on the coil and only about 10-15 seconds to set up the wire and vice grips for tension between coils. When you get the hang...
