I'm at 12-10mg in tanks but since I got into rebuilding my own I am dripping 6, but I can't use that as an ADV.
Thanks, no. I have toys now.
And I have some yarn for wicks, too, I just can't use it. Can't seem to not burn it no matter how I wrap or use it, so it's mesh only for me

I prefer silica because I'm paranoid about burning cotton. I have to boil some more when I get home tonight.
Bleh

Have not tried the silica, for various reasons, but I can't seemed to not burn the cotton so I empathize with your paranoia
I don't like the silica because it also makes me paranoid. I have heard a lot about using ekowool(?)
Apparently it has all the advantages of silica without the dangerous stuff. No clue though. I haven't even researched it.

I just figured I'll stick to mesh for anything I rebuild "from scratch"--it works for me and I'm too lazy to keep trying all the other options when they work basically the same and I can't get the first few tries to even approach success
I can't get mesh to work 
I did use a mesh wick but the coil was built on silica and rested against the mesh.

Yeah, that's just a part of the funny of life. I've never had a problem with mesh but I know a few people who just cannot get it to work no matter how hard they try. I also know a few people that cannot get fibre (cotton, silica, whatever they happen to use) not to work and I can't get it not to burn even if I use a battery so dead it can't even get the wire to glow 
You're doing it wrong.
Actually I think it's all some form of "black magic"--I can try to build a fibre wick and coil exactly like a tutorial, following along and comparing every single step of the way, even through the "testing to make sure it's right" process and have it match up exactly--until that first actual fire and poof, instant char. And I've seen plenty of cases where people actually build mesh wicks for other people who can't seem to get it right and even those "tested and guaranteed to be good" wicks don't work for the person who can't get mesh to work--but they work perfectly fine when sent back to the person who built them.
Some things work for some people and don't for others. I have no problem vaping on a fibre wick built by someone else, but I've actually had a mesh wick that I'd been using for two weeks stop working as soon as I let someone else try it only to have it work perfectly fine again within two puffs of getting it back...
Black magic...
