I haven't wrapped around a bolt for a spaced coil, but I imagine it would work for your purposes, fifty, if you are having trouble.
For whatever odd reason, just using a coil jig but only the bottom half (not using that top part to "wind" the wire, I am able to get a pretty even, spaced coil, just by twisting the wire myself. It's some odd gift I seem to have that I actually shouldn't. I actually prefer to wind that way, and if I want a contact coil, I just squish it together at the end, and it's about as even as a machine would do (at least in my eyes). I sort of assume it has something to do with knitting and crocheting from the age of about 4, when my grandma taught me those skills.... Good knitting has a lot to do with even tension, and I've knit things that look machine made. My sis is similarly equipped only she makes complicated stuff (she likes to count stitches, I very much do not) but I've made a ton of blankets that I then embroider stuff in felt using colorful embroidery threads. It's a lot of fun
With that said, you can wrap on anything that helps you, just try to figure out (about) what diameter it is.

I Always wanted to put a piece of #8-32 All-Thread into my Drill and make a 6" Long Coil.
Not sure Why? Just one of those Rainy Day Garage Excursions. LOL
I never nailed hammered .... or been in home depot I'm do next by hand and the jig not the sppiner part I suspect it was that
Not me. Though I did once complain that they should sell beer there so I could get everything I needed to screw up my project in one place.I've been in a Home Depot hammered...
Heat flux is simply the power divided by the surface area of the coil. Surface area is the best single measure of how big the coil is, basically the "window" the heat has to pass through to get back out. You don't need to calculate it to know that more power same size coil, or same power smaller coil, will be hotter, and vice versa. I used heat flux in my post mainly to cover all possibilities in 2 words.
With a mech, experience is better than calculations towards getting a good vape, but typically I find those most willing to share their experience don't actually have any experience doing what I would be trying to do. The vape shop bros may make a good vape but don't seem concerned with safety.
Blew my mind I need lame man terms I need to go get a hammer and some screw because my brains rattling
Hammers go with nails and screwdrivers go with screws, but nah you don't need any of those things. You can fix anything with just 2 items. If it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape. If it is supposed to move and doesn't, use WD-40.
There have been many posts in this thread, so apologies if this has been covered already.
Mech safety is very simple and basic. If it scares you, then they just aren’t for you. Get a regulated mod and safe yourself the anguish.

In the nicest way possible, if you had listened to any of the advise given in this thread, you wouldn’t be asking that question.
Sorry, but you shouldn’t be using a mech yet. Read what has been said in this thread first.
Not related to thread, but have to ask.
Is that a project headphone amp in your avatar picture?
Go to steam-engine.org and plan a coil that'll give you a vape that suits you.

How wide is that thing at its base btw? It’s one of the numbers I can’t find.
