The DID20 will probably be easier for the first timers, due to larger area to work in.
Purchasing a jewelers lighted visor was a lifesaver for me.
Also a volt meter, to know if it's working correctly and what the ohms are before putting it on my pv, is a lifesaver.

There are many ways to go about wrapping the coil onto the wick. Try them all! Shoot, the other night I couldn't for the life of me wrap like I usually do, and had to try another way. The new to me way was easy peasy that night. (wrap the coil onto the wick before inserting into hole. Tie onto the Center post first, then screw down the negative screw last). Thanks CloudWizard for that method! I've tried it before, and couldn't do it, and this time, it was the ONLY way to do it. Every day we utilize different dexterity or not so dexterious skills and knowing all the various methods to battle our selves is half the battle! You'll be fine.

That is too funny because I ran into the exact opposite yesterday. I could not get a coil wrapped around the wick with out a short to save my life so I tried doing it the other way and anchoring down the negative post and wrapping the coil around the wick while it was already in the hole and that worked great, perfectly even lighted coils and 1.4 ohm atomizer ready for vaping :D:D:

LOL That is for sure :D Kinda strange because the last time I built a wick and coil was the way you did it today. Then that method no longer worked so I had to try the other way and Bang instant success :D I am thinking of trying out this new Nextel Ceramic Wick in it next time I build one and see how that works out :D

Trick is to have a bunch of tools in the toolbox. Depending on planetary alignment and the phase of the moon (or maybe how many beers...) different methods seem better than others some days.

Yeppers, like I said above I just got some Nextel Ceramic Wicking in and I want to test that out in the Mini DID and see how it tastes. I have torched the living daylights out of a piece of it already and it is ready to be placed in the wick hole as soon as this coil fails or the wick starts tasting funky :D

That's the same method I use. On the wick, connect the battery terminals. :)
I can't wrap the DID on the wick. I always, ALWAYS, short out. No, I don't know why besides I probably leave one coil a little looser, or whatever.

I just heard back from Darryll!! He and his family are safe, they have insurance and family support. He has enough vaping supplies for a month and is doing "fine" under the circumstances. He says to tell everyone thank you for thinking of him and offering your help. He has a DID, don't need no stinking cartos. :D Ok, that last line was mine, but I can read minds you know. :D Once a DIDer, you never go back. :)

ALSO, I've seen posts by badinfluence357 over the last few days, and seems to be getting along just fine, under the circumstances.

I've seen CyrusVap and a few others posting too, so far so good.

That is truly a relief to hear Uma :D Thank you so much for the update. I was starting to get worried about them because I had not heard from them in a few days. LOL I understand now what you are talking about with the DID's I am hooked on em because a few of my long forgotten juices are now coming back to life at long last :D

Anyone every try Nextel Ceramic Wick in these? I have 100 feet of it and I am really curious as to how well it will work out in these babies since it does not splinter like silica does. :D

I've wicked a standard and a mini with 3mm ceramic GG wick (never Nextel). doubled up top where the coil goes, single through the wick hole. Worked OK. Easy to wrap, obviously no shorts/hotspots and unfortunately no crisp/clean SS mesh flavor (was somewhat muted as expected).
