    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    Yeah that was when I first got into building, and at $4 who cares. I have a drawer full of spools now, ranging from 18g-44g, .3, .4, & .5(x.1mm), & .2x.2 square wire. So back then when I first started building I didn't really care about spending a few bucks to practice with. My drill has an...

    STRO OG Mini? It's like $34.99, 2 post 4 post hole similar to the velocity deck but larger post holes & more space in between posts for a single build running through the middle. Also has AFC compared to the original STRO mini, and single airflow control. Thoughts? Worth buying?

    Wot? Clean your coils, sir. N80 wouldn't be used if it affected taste severely and threw things off.

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    Yeah sometimes I forget what i say. Apologies. My head is a jungle. Working on an east coast schedule living on the west coast right now, I get the occasional missed thought. Claptons are kinda mindless work. But this device just kinda bothers me because it creates a perception that a...

    I wash my coils/deck religiously upon a fresh install. I don't boil them, however I do scrub the deck/coils down with a toothbrush and a mixture of Polmalive Ultra (the green one) & water I have in a bottle. Scrub, rinse, repeat.

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    I just kind of picked it up quickly. My first Clapton was a $4 cost - $2 for 5ft of 30 & $2 for 5ft of 24g. Just kind of figured it out quick. Off spool work isn't hard. The most wire I've wasted have been on complex builds. Mainly interlocking aliens or things like multistrand high gauge core...

    I agree with this thought provoking, highly invocative comment.

    So I know everyone is kinda split on the Magma rda, like people either love it or hate it. What about this? The Magma Reborn:

    RDA Kennedy 24mm RDA thoughts.

    I got the quotes on pricing, I'm most likely gonna go copper or heat treated Ti, or a combo of both, like heat treat Ti chamber & Copper top. But the price on full copper is $95, price on full Ti is $125. I may have to sell my beta (shorty) cap. I don't know anyone else that has a short K24 cap...

    RDA Kennedy 24mm RDA thoughts.

    So for those of you who haven't heard of Pourboy Customs, I just enquired about one of these caps for my K24. Would make life easier for a lot of us if he makes a run of these

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    I'd love to see it do 10' of 40/50g Clapton. Or 38/50g. I don't think it could.

    Idk how it is yet, but the insides are round frames and ribbon cores. So it's basically what I'd normally make except with a square wrap. I need to figure out which deck to put these on. They definitely won't fit in my Petri unless I drill my posts, and I don't think I could get them to fit in...

    How's this? That square wire is pretty great once I started to figure out how to use it. It's a 26g FSA 4x .4x.1mm ribbon with a .2x.2mm square alien. I gotta do some more wraps, interlockings, stitched, etc. I'm really liking this wire

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    Two fingers on the spool seem easier. I use swivels with a drill that has a speed lock so it doesn't really make a difference to me. It just seems like a waste of money

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    To me it seems like more work setting up the thing than actually just holding the spool to wrap the core(s). It's almost like cheating, and I highly doubt it could do a 3 core and keep it parallel

    It's way more work setting that thing up than it is to make an actual fused Clapton.

    Vaped3d Coil Jig

    This seems like more work than actually making a fused Clapton or a Clapton off a spool. I'm assuming it's marketed towards people who have never made a Clapton before because wrapping a wire around a core or 2 is mindless easy work. This insults me because it creates a notion that Claptons &...

    Best Cloud Chase Build for SW 200W + Velocity RDA?

    I second this. Try a 22g N80 8 wrap dual on a 3mm. Should be in the .17~ ohm range
