soon as you try to thread the fiber glass..through that coil...because of thin layers..it starts to break up...ive tried melting the ends with wax...its to hard..plus that's 2ml...its not enough for the coil as soon as juice hits it..it shrinks...so will need at least 3ml....
THROUGH??
You mean you don't wrap the wire AROUND the wick and instead you are trying to push it througha ready made coil?

the 2ml fibre glass is great for top wicks...since using as a replacement of the silca...great flavour..but as a coil wick no 2ml...it leaks bad...wil be ok for rebuild thou..cause I could try double up....or get 3ml ...to wrap wire to make coil...work in progress...but for now the cotton wool is the best to feed in coil wth the 2ml flavour wicks...no leaks good flavour..
omg!!! am I really that hard to understand....yes ive done a total rebuild...just for the fun of it....but all my heads coils are ok....so yes im replacing the wicks...for coil and top wicks for now.....do you get me.......now!!!
I don't understand but fiberglass can be used on anything you want. On the CE3 it works perfect too.
Have no idea, probably within the week but maybe next one.
You are ...... off eh?

It can't be seen from the angle of that photo, but on the other side of the tree are four "temporary" climbing pegs. I use 1/2"X8" lag bolt driven 4"into the tree trunk for pegs. They're more than strong enough to hold little old me. The branches are much thicker than is visible as well. Actually a branch an inch in diameter is big enough to support my weight as long as my foot is against the trunk as well. The tough part about a tree that big is getting a firm hold, the trunk is too big to lock an arm around it so you need available branches or pegs to work with all the time until the safety lanyard is set around the trunk.
Good night, Konstantine, don't get tangled up in the keyboard or mouse cables while you're sleeping LOL
Debra, I've never rebuilt one as you know, but I would suggest trying to wrap the end of the wick with something like clear plastic wrap or another thin, strong, flexible, material. If you wrap it tightly it may act as a "needle" to thread the wick through.

ive tried a few things no go..not much room to work with in that coil area...plus like I said if using fibre glass..2ml to thin...and 3ml would be even harder to thread....so ill just use cotton wool taper for now....till the coils blow up...and then rebuild more...amen....cheers awsum yes Im looking forward to your video....I wonder what happen to mr outlaw he said weeks ago he was going to do a T3 review....? unless he has...cause I cant find it...
Well, I am trying to wrap up my day of working outside. So lovely. I figured out why the greenhouse was getting so cold overnight, I think. The dirt had come away from the foundation and day light was coming in so you know the cold air was getting in there.
Transplanted some chrysanthemums and some iris. Started redoing the rock border for the tree island in the middle of the driveway. Took the extra rocks up to the greenhouse with a wheelbarrow for heat absorption. Dug out those darn golden rods that are trying to take over the world. Those were a mistake. Tough but not that pretty and trying to spread. The other mistake is that Feather Reed grass witch looks pretty but is very invasive.
Gotta take a load of golden rods out to a dry area to kill them and then into the compost they go
The animals are fed but I need to work on feeding us peeps soon.
Daylight Savings time is already starting so set your clocks ahead before you go to bed!
Of course, Deb and Kon can ignore that. Goodnight, Kon.

The one by snaredrummer is by far the best one I've seen. Camera work is excellent and every step is clearly visible. He never did explain the "bow shape" that I noticed but I think its to more evenly distribute the liquid onto the coil, but that's just a guess. I also liked the idea of using a pin to add body to the wick while wrapping the coil. I want my coils more in the 2.5 ohm range, but other than that, he looks like he is giving a very good demo of exactly how to do it and what you'll need.

If you don't like invasive plants, avoid bamboo. That will spread everywhere, and it's hard to control once it gets started.
Thanks for the reminder about daylight savings time.
I was so awestruck by seeing that picture of you in that tree that I forgot to ask... Awsum??? Why were you WAY up in that tree?
Maybe you posted your reason earlier and I missed it. Also, you looked so comfy up there too.

Go Lizzie! Go Lizzie!! Between transplanting flowers, hauling rocks, feeding critters and peeps, I'm worn out just reading this!
Yeah, I was comfortable, sort of anyway in that shot. I had both feet at close to the same height and could lock the legs rather than rely on muscle only.
That's a sweet gum tree. Sweet gum drops seed pods that are spiked and about the size of walnuts. One that big drops a lot of seed pods and it makes a mess in the yard, makes it uncomfortable to walk around the tree, plays havoc with Bo walking around the yard and is a pain to clean up and clean up has to happen two or three times a year. There are two behind our house and both are going. This one, the bigger of the two, has to go first and if falls the wrong way when I cut it, it'll get VERY expensive very quickly because it'll wreck the house. So the object is to get a line up high enough to give lots of leverage and pull, using my Jeep, as I make the felling cut (my wife will drive the Jeep) to make sure it falls the right way without any question. We have done this before and the Jeep and her will be well out of any danger zone as the tree falls.
