I just watched the YouTube video. Looks pretty user friendly
Does torching it make the wire easier to maneuver?

Always torch the wire first, Chim. It takes the spring out of the wire

Can I just use a lighter or does it have to be more heavy duty than that?

So that's why you do it I've heard you can use a lighter

You can use a lighter but when you get a chance grab a cheap butane torch from meijer or somewhere similar. It does a much better job and is much faster

I build the coil with the jig then take the coil and heat it then squeeze it with pliers then repeat 2 more times. It's good to heat your coil anyways as it burns off any chemicals on the wire from the factory. U can use a regular lighter too but I got my mini torch lighter for like 5 bucks at a gas station.

Thanks Jeff

You guys are awesome. I don't know what I'd do without you! Guess I'll go ahead & grab a torch in the next couple of days since I have to wrap some coils soon.
