That may be one of the best video series I have seen on micro coil building!
Kudos to you and thanks for your efforts.

AMAZING video's man, I just got home from work and watched em to catch up, I'm going to try your method later, and update with results.
Here's a quick, rough vid so you get the idea
Go slow and don't worry about the starter wraps being sloppy - we get rid of them at the end and you'll have the tightest micro coil you've ever seen

wow, I've never seen anyone do it like that, great technique!
I'll go down to the store and get some 29gauge tomorrow and try it!
I'd do it tonight but since we're rapidly heading for -20 temps I'm in not going anywhere
These are excellent! I'm so sure I can do this now
Thank you for making these videos drifter
Don't be too quick lol it looked easy, until I tried it lol and failed, I do believe its because I'm using 30g wire tho...its just too small
Yes 30 is tougher to wrap a micro no matter how you do it.
Yup ! In pic I posted had to back off few times to get it just right .
Im still wrapping on Syringe Needles SXD LOL Need me a coil jig !
Why thank you

Proper videos. To the point w/o the small talk and repetitiveness. Good fresh info to boot.
Your 1.5 ohm looks pretty hot, looks hot as my 1.2 ohm 3/32" twisted 30GA. My 18350 and myself will be happy if find satisfaction at 1.5. I am interested in efficiency.
I like your dense wick. I never had luck w/ the" less is more" inside coil cotton wick. I do have luck w/ auto dripper less is more through tank deck hole.
Now, if I can get that sucker to wick quick enough, my batt may get a breather now and again.
I have yet to figure out if they can't make or don't want to make a proper coil.
Maybe the latter, because a proper coil lasts longer than a tootsie roll pop.
google "pre-wrapped coils". you'll find some decent horribly expensive ones from US vendors, and some horrible, but dirt-cheap ones from china.
Like MamaTried said they do put you couldnt pay me to use one after learning to wrap my own !
Why thank you

Very well done sir. Thanks
It all depends on how you define "horribly expensive." Avid Vaper sells pre-made coils for about $1 each. Granted, when you compare that to the cost of a 30 ft. roll of kanthal plus wicking material, it is high, but it is much less than the hit-or-miss pro tank coils sold by my local b&m for $2.50 each.
i agree. i actually bought some of the AV ones when i got my first RDA. i have old man eyes, and for all intents and purposes, am one-handed.
i soon discovered, however, that for me, wrapping the coils was the easy part. getting the wires into those teensy-tiny post holes and wicking takes me longer.
if Avid Vapor could pull off that for me, i'd gladly pay a buck or so
