Yeah I have a fairly loose wick in mine, with some tail extending into the larger side well to soak up excess. My coil is just slightly offset from the squonk hole and just high enough that I can shift the wick tail enough to not cover the hole but still grab juice from it immediately. Been working like a charm so far. Seems there are multiple ways to build and wick this one. Vert just seemed like the best option for me and I wanted to use all three air intakes.
Btw, tapatalk doesn't seem to like your image link. It shows as broken to me. Been seeing that a lot lately.
