I have a kit similar to this Coil Master DIY Kit
advantage you have the tools + a coil winder + ohm meter all in one neat package, disadvantage it is not cheap
I started with a spool of kanthal, a bag of cotton balls, wire clippers, tweezers and the resistance checker built into my vammo
What are you going to build coils for is my first question?
And how many watts do you plan to vape at?
Yep ... what Robert asked. A lot of the tools will be common to whatever you're rebuilding ... but it would help know what head/RBA/RTA you'll be working on.
Honey, I'm so sorry that we hurt your feelings, we were just joking.
i really miss her
the first thing you need......is to wrap your head around the fact that it's not as hard as you think (see what I did there) hehehe I would definitely suggest a coil master v3. Thread a needle and twist a knob, and presto you have a gorgeous coil. Like Myrany said, an ohm meter is great, but I also started out checking resistance on a regulated mod. the kit isn't a bad price for everything really, but I have no need for ceramic tweezers, don't use 26g kanthal, would rather have a CM3 coil jig than the one in the kit, wouldn't touch that cotton, no idea where it came from, and would likely get frustrated trying to get some of that in out and out considering that guy had a bit of issues in the video.
Like I said I have a SIMILAR kit. They don't seem to have the kit I got anymore. Mine didn't have the kanthal or the cotton. The coil jig is basically the same setup as the one you are talking about though. Just a different brand name...works the same way.
I can be hyper sensitive at times. It goes with the social anxiety disorder. I try hard to bite my tongue figuring that is what is causing the hurt. Sometimes though I just can't. I responded to one mostly as a "this is SO not cool" kind of thing. Apology offered and accepted so that is done. The one after him that just jumped in with pure nasty is now on ignore without a response (not you) so no more problems there. I know I get like this which is why I am rarely on the back porch where such interactions are more likely. Most of the time I just walk away from the forums for a few weeks until I feel like my skin has thickened again.
I know this may sound strange, but I'm not overly worried about that part of it. I know about ohms, and watts and all that other stuff. I know what size wire I need to get. I'm just wondering about other little things I'll need to work with like tweezers or stuff to wrap coils, etc........
I caught that girly!! LOL Thanks for making me laugh.
Thank ya! Thank ya!!
Well pot and kettle glad to meet you. I too suffer greatly form social anxiety disorder always have. Just got bit on the back porch as well...
I will just stop all but technical comments I suppose, tech was why I cam here in the first place.
And the Rip just tears up my social anxiety disorder. Can't stand to be around people like him.
That is the root of my dislike for him.
sorry again.
hehehe glad you're easy to make laugh! I use a regular pair of tweezers to pull the old cotton out, a screwdriver that rotates in the middle, but any small phillips will work. I do have an ohm meter now, pr of scissors, my coil master 3 (i like the long rods, and fatter handle and it's designed to wrap coils backwards (some attys need that) others will do it, but this one is designed for it (bout 15.00 on ebay) and some flush cut cutters. I used to just wiggle the legs til they broke, but some folks said that's not a good idea. Pretty sure that's all I use. I don't squeeze my coils but if I did ever need to, I'd just stop firing and use the regular tweezers I have. You can't use those WHILE you fire. I'm in the hangout if you have time to jump in for a bit
Really its ok. no need for further apologys really
I don't much like the man either I just sort of mentally stick Wile E. Coyote in place of him when I watch a video it helps. Thing is he knows his stuff and doesn't take 45 minutes to explain something that takes less than 10 to do. Otherwise I wouldn't bother with him either.

True but his stuph is only .1 ohms and 100 watts pretty much. Not interested in that at this point.
His stuph is not my stuph.
he only caters to the Klowdz types.

It's far better to leave personal feelings and sniping out of it.
If you don't like someone's style, just say you don't care for that particular person. As you have seen, a personal attack on someone can be taken as an insult to the person you are responding to.
It seems that by ragging on Rip, you made Myrany feel like you were questioning her own judgement that the video was worth you watching.
We are all friends here, and despite being able to express ourselves, common courtesy should be used.
And, no, I'm not trying to rag on you two. Just trying to see things from Myrany's side as well. Let me apologize if I've not stated myself very well and please take it in the spirit of constructive opinion.
His video on building the subtank mini RBA deck and rebuilding the premade heads was useful in a how to do it way. I can figure out my own number of wraps to get my desired resistance.

Oh no! It wasn't me, was it? I thought I had a handle on this steroid thing but maybe not since I've eating all day. [emoji512] [emoji489] [emoji509] [emoji510] [emoji513] [emoji514] [emoji487] [emoji488]
