    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    Thanks a lot. I also believe the wick might be the issue. I've tried what you suggest (several times). I've tried with and without water, jack frost method, varying oxydation time and/or VG burns. Also tried cig paper method. I've tried thin/thick wicks, wicks with/without center hole etc...

    Glad you're here! Better than suffering alone, no? How long've you been at it (RBAs)?

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    Thanks for asking. I'm getting shorts and can't get rid of them. fiddling with the coil doesn't seem to help. I'll try the cotton method next. :)

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    Ok: rolling: 1. folded outer edge. 2. rolled wick around wooden stick. 3. carefully bent the outer edge inwards 4. finished rolling without stick 5. checked if edge was good (looking and feeling w fingertips) oxydation: 1. torched wick until brownish 2. VG burn 4 times No, they're not. With...

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    Thanks a lot guys. I do understand if you're getting tired of this :blush: I tried all of your suggestions, managed to get the second coil glowing for a cpl of seconds, but suddenly the wire shorted next to the top not and melted :oops: I get shorts with every single coil lately- so I thought...

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    I really appreciate your input! I have done some wicks + coils lately. Trying to follow the 'zen-method'. Apart from that i took special care to avoid having an edge on the wick. Also took care wrapping the wire (and extra care with the top coil), but every setup had shorts on either top or...

    Kult! Takk!

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    I did heat the wire first, but still find it 'springy'. I've tried both but don't notice any big difference in 'springyness'(?) I'm well aware this current coil is way too loose. It was suggested to me (somewhere else) to do that, and tighten it by moving them after wrapping. I'll try a cpl of...

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    This is latest attempt. Coils are deliberately wrapped losely. The idea was to tighten by fiddling (a suggestion I've read elsewhere), but wire is too elastic, it jumps back unless pushed violently enough which destroys oxidation layer. Wick oxidized by gentle torching prior to rolling, then 3...

    I DID try (frustrated newbie)

    I'm aware that i'm asking what other frustrated fellow rta newbies have asked before me. Still, I hope you'll forgive me asking as I find setting up the DID extremely difficult. I've been at it for a month, and have used up an entire sheet (+) of SS mesh, several meters of Kanthal A-1, 32 gauge...

    getting frustrated:(

    Thanks a lot Kamoch & V Ninja. I'll try :) Oh, and apologies to the OP for barging in.

    getting frustrated:(

    But how (on earth) do you make sure the wick diameter is exactly the same? When attempting this method, I always end up with a wick that's a bit too thick or thin. The mesh I've tried with (325 & 400 ferm themeshcompany.com) has some elasticity to it so making it the same diameter is extremely...

    New national association. How to make other vapers aware?

    * I managed to make a very basic frontpage with basic info (Norsk Dampselskap - Forside). It could really do with some improvement as I'm not sure if this is any better than no frontpage. I've never before attempted to do any html/css stuff, so advice reg this would really be appreciated. * I'm...
