Not a micro by definition... Coils arent touching, but i'm gonna post it here anyways!

Ok... I felt it was time for a new Xobe original coil!

I present you with the Dirty Monkey Steam-Roller

Mundy's magic on a 400 mesh core wrapped in a 400 mesh skin.

Meters at approximately .4ohm

I would not suggest this to the coil newbie! I blew a few fuses getting it right

Both of my newest RM2's have very small holes on the right terminal. Is that the way Rob is sending them out now? It is hard to get wire through that one hole in the post for sure.. I dont have a small enough drill bit to ream it out.. Any one else have this happen and what you did to enlarge the hole? Thanks,, PS> Sorry for changing the subject..

90 went out with the small hole.
Rob will fix if you send to him.
I just enlarged mine as I needed to hog them out for my twisted ribbon anyway.

Thanks Alex.. didnt know that. Guess Ill pull the Dremel out..

Do you know you can unscrew the posts and remove them to do it?
Just do 1 at a time and put back in before you do the other is the simplest way if you want to remove them to do it.
If you already know that disregard.

Yeah. I know that but thanks for mentioning it.. It is only 1 post that has small hole. The other is ok. :)

Hey all!

I decided today that I would try doing my first micro coil and use cotton with it. I'm not new to building in any way, but drippers ARE new to me as well as micro coils. Here is a shot of what I first came up with. Go easy on me HAHA, but I really would like some feedback. I'm thinking I may have to much wick first off. I biult it with 10 wraps of28 guage on a 5/16 drill bit.

My first issue is it first read 1.3 ohms, now it fluctuates between 1.3 and 2.0. It sure hits hard, but I'd like to do better.
