Don't. Unless you're very, very handy, stick to twisted round wire or spools of premade Claptons.No, I'm pretending I don't see it
Although it's easier to get your Claptons precoiled and ready to vape. I don't wind unless I absolutely need to.

Yeah, I use spools of fused clapton. But I'm currently enjoying flat wire. And the only tool needed for that is:
Pssssst ... @AngeNZ coilology has a web site for placing orders.
Coilology Official-The Best Coil Manufacturer
Ahhhhh, my favorite tool. In the useless info category, did you know that the first appearance of a tool used as a hammer was 3.3 million years ago. Yeah, me neither.
Avid Artisan Daedalus Pro + Daedalus Clapton Wire Tool
The Avidartisan Daedalus is worth every penny and then some. Look at some videos on YouTube and you'll see why.

I successfully wound a 30ga stainless coil last week. That was something of a miracle.
I'll say
I got ss316l 0.5mm * 0.1mm flat wire last week. It is like wrapping a coil with curling ribbon
Springy as hell and thin as hell But I am determined to get one vapable coil from it - it is my mission impossible for the week
Ok us women have been building and installing coils since way back in the olden days of gennies - and there's plenty more of us now
I figured we could do with a thread to chat - yeah I know shock horrorand help each other out with building tips - especially those new to RDAs and RTAs.
Here's a summons for a few of you: @DeloresRose @Zazie @Letitia @NolaMel @Opinionated @Katya @chanelvaps @Heartsdelight @Fidola13 @muth

Here's the 0.68mm * 0.27mm
2.5mm id 5 wrap coil:
And the 1mm * 0.14mm coil
2.5mm id 5 wrap coil:
I hope the blokes will explain it better for me but I've found the 1mm * 0.14mm ramps up and cools down far quicker than the thicker 0.68mm * 0.27mm
Here is the 1mm * 0.14mm 3mm id coil in the Recurve RDA:
