lmao..I still chuckle every time I run into it. It's the yellow part. Gasket/grommet same difference...
The other thing is with the ProTank if you use natural wick you have to trim the wick tight/ close to the wick opening. Messes with the air exchange otherwise. With Vg when it's right you'll get a steady pile up of bubbles...
Glad you liked it. Let me know if I might of missed anything. Anywhere where a newbie might get confused..From Post 86 forward that's got to be the most thorough, precise and exact tutorial I have EVER seen here at ECF. Kudos Eddie ...a really nice job and I've bookmarked it.
Thank you

Thanks Jo. Honestly feel that some good pictures and explanations are better for this. No pausing, at the users pace, like ifixit does for iPhones and other devices.See? Told ya so!!! If I could follow it, anybody can.
I wasn't kidding about a Utube video either!
I'm using 1mm hemp twine natural from love pedal on eBay. Boiled thrice, new water each time,20minutes a time. Then oven dried immediately overnight on the WARM setting.150-170°. It's only treated with corn starch to make the twine. So you don't have to boil but,I would recommend it.
I don't need to tell you but, for others all you need is a standard round toothpick to make the coil. A thick paper clip to hold the coil in place in the atomizer body while completing legs. Slide 1 piece through the coil and 1 piece over...6 wraps/32g Kanthal a-1 should give you 2.3-2.5ohms around the toothpick..
WOW!!!! All I can say is WOW!! Thanks for posting these amazing instruction pictures. I'm sure this will help everyone who has an interest in doing this. These will definitely help me
You also should do some Utube videos... just a suggestion. Thanks again Eddie!

That was a great tutorial and some impressive art work.
Some have marks, some don't.
Coils are not marked. My vendor put both 1.8 and 2.4Ω coils in the same plastic baggie--I had to use my multimeter to sort them out. PITA.
I was curious about trying these until I read that acidic fruit flavors will ruin them...guess I will stick to my pyrex tank & cartos until I can get my hands on a protank.
Coil is aligned with base of wick opening. Cut piece of wick. Wind it tight and slide through coil. May have to use that hook you made with excess 32g Kanthal a-1 to feed the far side of wick up and over the base of the wick opening.
so how do u know if you are getting a true Kanger product as opposed to a clone?
LOL sorry I needed both hands. Simply slot the the wick through the coil. You may need a small hook like object to pull the lead edge of the wick up and over the lip of the far side. Wire clipping works perfect. Just make a loop at one end.when did you insert the wick? I didn't see the wick insertion pic/ instructions. That step I missed somehow.
Thanks for taking the time to take pics and make picture by pic instruction. I almost feel like I could do this.
ALMOST. lol Still would feel better with someone sitting there doing a hand hold during the process.
As I am not mechanically inclined in any way.
I feel that I do pretty good with what I do with the various parts and pieces I have considering how DUH I am! lol
Eddie great tutorial!
I'd like to add a few of us are ditching the flavor wicks. Building coils 3.5-5mm. No leaking, gurgling, or dry hits.
or you could use a Boge carto . That is what I use for tank wrecking juices. I do have the ProTank, but so far is doesn't blow my dress up.
I had to plug one of its holes with plumbers tape due to its airy draw and it mutes my juice flavor. Even with my ecto juice which is not a bland juice. I am hoping when I change to a new/different coil head the flavor will improve. Someone told me that they improved Protank
flavor doing a coil rebuild but I am not mechanically inclined.
