This is SOP for me when I Take Apart, Fill or Dry Burn.

I like it because I can Flip up the Lens if I want to go back to 1x.

That does look like a nice one Z. The one I have is not LED, so I didn't even bother putting batteries in it.
Should have seen my wife's face when she walked into my DIY/mod "lab" and seen me rewicking some Stardust.
She stopped laughing though when she got a hit off of a 7 wrap 2ohm special! Helps to see

The LED that it has Isn't Surface of the Sun Bright but it works Pretty Good. It runs of 2 AAA Batteries which I like because I have Lots of Rechargeable AA and AAA Batteries Laying around.
The Thing that Makes it for me if the Flip Up Lens, Lens. I've bashed me Knee too many times Walking around with one of these Magnifiers on because the Coffee Table was a Blurr Smudge.

7 Wraps!!! Tell us more.
32 gauge nichrome...carefully spaced under magnification. I actually fit 10 wraps of 30ga in, but it was 1.2ohms so I chucked that one.
32ga or 34ga with 2mm silica wick either single or stacked is the way to go IMO.
You'll know you have a winner when the entire coil glows end to end simultaneously on a dry burn test fire.

Here's a good technique for wrapping a coil, inserting wick (I just use a doubled over piece of 32 gauge wire instead of the thread) http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...1-actual-working-methods-only.html#post986921
For the 34 ga yes. The 32ga I coil around the smooth end of a drill bit, set it in the alligator clips, and pull the wick through.
I tried pulling the wick through that 34ga, and I can't seem to not mangle the coil. I've been trying to pull the wick through looped. Going to have to try it lie you show next time I fix up some more.
Big Screen D, you go exactly the same way as I do 
Powerful glasses create magic: you can see everything and feel young. We, old modders, have a lot of abilities, but sometimes have not an ability to see what we done
To be serious, additional big glasses are very, very useful if you make something like a heater.

Only bad thing about those big glasses Slim, is I never knew my fingers looked so beat up and old!
