Thanks buddy. Trying for a single coil. Have plenty of dual coil attys.
I've been getting the same thing. I'm using 26g spaced center coil. Plenty of cotton. I thought somebody mentioned if you overliaded it with juice it would make this happen but it seems to be doing it on mind with or without a lot.
Try to gently move the wick back and forth inside the coil. In some cases this is a result of a small cavity that somehow traps a bubble of air between the wick and the coil. See if this works.
Try a twisted 28g 7 wrap 2.5mm off to the side with air open on one side.My Stumpy arrived!!
Now, if I could just find a build that works for me. My single coil, center builds make great vapor, but the flavor is muted. Build suggestions anyone? I'm currently running a 5 wrap, 26gu, 2.5mm build and it's ok, but no where near as much flavor as my Rogue.
Just throwing a couple of things out there I have noticed with MM. If you don't get all the "folds" opened up enough this is more likely to happen. This is more likely to happen with 0.1mm thick ribbon than .07mm thick ribbon because it is more rigid. Using wider than 0.6mm ribbon can also lead to popping due to the longer "tunnels". I made some 1.0mm wide ribbon into MM and it made the atty look like an old time steam engine. Make sure the twist direction of the 3 "folded" strands is the same or that can lead to 1 strand not opening up proper. Run a lighter or propane torch down the finished MM to anneal it before wrapping the coil. Make sure and dry burn it till it heats nice and even if making a contact coil then do it a few more times to make sure there aren't any hot spots. I like to stuff the cotton in thick with MM. I twist the cotton tight then pull in the coil with enough cotton it will start to deflect the coil without a small screwdriver at the pulling end holding the end of the coil from deflecting. Sometimes pulling in the cotton that tight can create a hot spot that pops or sputters and I just have to pull the wick and start the dry burn process over again. YMMV
The Maker Rdas are in... I will have the correct hardware to bottom feed them tomorrow. I will post up pics as soon as I get a few done. If I was to design an atty this is what it would it would be. Think manta with more air and no Philippino weirdness. All SS, top air in, side air across the coil, American made, fair price, comes with chuff and 510 caps as well as a wide bore 510 drip tip and an atty stand. I haven't figured out how big I will make the squonk hole but it will be massive. The maker will squonk and drain like few others. I can see this one being widely successful. Dare I say next Stumpy? The doc will be up soon. If you have ever wanted a dual post and top air atty that just plain works and looks great doing it; this is your next atty.
Other great news... I just got an email from the Machine shop making the LBC bodies.... They promise to have them in my meaty little fists by the end of next week..
Who is getting excited now?
Btw, I should have mentioned long ago I suppose the carbon fiber on the pictured demos is the cheap stuff; yours will come with the good large twill and much smoother expensive stuff. Google "Dragon Plate" to get a better idea. The fire buttton will also be 2mm larger in diameter as well, I didn't have an 8mm end mill to cut the hole in the carbon fiber but the cf machine shop does.

Well you've sold me. I was going to pass because I don't like the logo but I just took another look & everything else about it I love. Plus if you're that excited about it I can overlook a little writing on it!
That is fantastic news!Other great news... I just got an email from the Machine shop making the LBC bodies.... They promise to have them in my meaty little fists by the end of next week..
