I haven't built anything too crazy yet. I did some twisted wire a couple times. I usually like some simple 24awg or 26awg dual coils or a parallel coil, 7-8 wraps around 2.5 or 3mm.

I have the tfv4 as well, so far my favorite build is a toss up between 26ga SS316L parallel or twisted. 2-3mm id, 3-5 wraps on either.
Right now I've got a twisted 5 wrap, 3mm ID but I'm still pretty new to building so i change it out to try different builds pretty often. I need to start keeping my coils that are still usable lol.

Since you haven't built a coil before, start simple. Don't go diving into anything too complicated. Once you've got some coils down, you'll know where you want to go and how you want to change their performance. Faster wicking, more heat, harder hit...that sort of thing.
Yes, keep it simple. It seems very difficult at first even with a simple coil. Just check and recheck everything before you but the power to it!
I was thinking a juggernaut coil. Because I'm a perfectionist. But would it be ok to use titanium with ribbon wire?

If you have never built a coil start with naked wire. Complex builds have no real advantage over naked wire.
I suggest you PERFECT the single wire, single coil build BEFORE trying anything fancy........ You need the basis. of a basic coil build. to JUDGE, the quality, other than in pictures, of a fancy coil build.
Agree with others again, while doable, anything complex might be more frustration than it's worth. Certainly cool, but walk before you run brother. A simple contact coil, get the techniques down for that and establish a foundation. After that, sprint away into whatever craziness you want...you'll need those basics for anything else that you do.
Thanks for all the help I have twisted alot of naked wires now and talked to the guys at the my local vape shop they watched me wrap about 8 coils in like 3 to 4 mins and they looked at them and told me that i'm ready to start making clapton wire. I coiled up about 30 foot of wire b4 I even went to the shop and asked for there opinion on if i'm ready for something new. Thanks for the advice. Just for future reference for when I'm ready to build the juggernauts, EvlSmrk you say that it is doable that I could twist ribbon and titanium wire and nothing bad will happen when I fire it? Or no?
Absolutely true. Recently made a 26 twist around 24g. Heated evenly, was gorgeous and sexy. Outside looked evenly barbed, inside was a pretty and smooth looking micro. Sexy sexy. Vaped like piss. LOL.
