    Wire Rope for Wick?

    Ok I think I get it now. Screw threads need to be filled and covered in juice before vaping. Then, the evaporating juice at the top leaves and creates a "suction" effect in the threads which brings new juice up. Am I correct even if I don't use proper scientific names for what's happening?

    Probably confused hemp twine used as a wicking material versus the ........ I hear some smoke. ;)

    I would have went for it instead of ordering 67 yards. Doh! At least if it works as well as they say, I'll have a lifetime supply. :)

    Wire Rope for Wick?

    That screw thing... are you screwing with us? I tried many many different machine screws I had on hand and none will bring any ejuice or water up. Am I missing something?

    RBAs all the way. No more "fill & vape" stuff for me!

    How to make an unoxidized, hot spot free and cleanable coil

    My personal experience with a similar setup is that it only gets better with time. The juice will cook a bit under the coil and on the wick, holding it in place with some juice gunk. Taste gets amazing. Vapor is a killer. Then it gets too gunky. So I remove the wick, clean it in PGA, burn PGA on...

    Nice setup! Is that a piece of unoxidized SS mesh under the coil?

    How to make an unoxidized, hot spot free and cleanable coil

    I remember someone posting a temperature chart for Nichrome wire. It might be very similar to Kanthal A-1. When I popped a few Kanthal A1 wires, I remember seeing (fast fast it was) it turning white like a camera flash. Probably the higher glow and white color associated with higher temp. I...

    I do the same and every time I build a new coil, I can't believe it's working. Strange but works. The heavier the gauge, the better it seems to work for me. I now only use 30 and 28 AWG for this. Always a bit smaller of a coil than the wick hole so as to have the unoxidized wick float inside...

    Looks very nice! What kind of cotton are you using? Seems like it's been "unbraided" and that it can hold a lot of juice.

    We pay the same in Canada. 11.40$ for standard shipping 4-8 business days. Yeah we have the option to pay 6.80$ for economy shipping, ETA 1 to 4 weeks. Canada Post sucks for all. US or CA. :)

    What's the kind of ink? Is it dye or pigment based? Make sure the paper & ink are compatible. I know dye inks are used in less expensive models and it does not do very well on glossy less porous surfaces. Are the labels made for inkjet? Send me a link to label brand and what's your printer model?

    Have a pic of that nice brushed finish? Thinking of doing the same to one IGO and one AGA. Thanks!

    Thanks for the explanation. Excellent it is. Yeah, I tend to word stuff as Yoda would. Don't know why. French is my mother tongue. Could be that. Green I am not. :)

    Thanks for the floss tip! Will try on ZAU. Have the rounded top IGO as well. I like them because the cap is tight. Never moves! :)

    IGO-L Rebuildable Stainless Steel Dripping Atomizer Anyone have one of these?

    Did you notice any difference with the Norpro (as it's made for cooking) compated to regular cotton thread? I use cotton thread from Walmart. Doesn't burn but gets normal gunk after a while. When all dark, I take it out of the coil and wash it just to see if anything is burned. Most of the time...
