I thought this might help out some new builders.
Maybe you have seen this:

Well, here's a simple way to wrap tight coils. Take a paper clip and unfold one end so it's at a 90 degree angle. Twist the end of your wire around the loop so it stays on the loop. Then wrap the wire once around the piece of the paper clip sticking out. Pinch the wire between your fingers and start spinning the other end of the paper clip:

Eventually you'll end up with a tightly wrapped coil like this:

If you want a bigger diameter coil, simply wrap some tape around the paperclip where the looped coil is. You can make a nice micro coil or a huge macro coil. After it's wrapped, take it off, place on your atomizer, dry burn, pinch tight, dry burn, pinch tight, dry burn, wick, vape.

This may not help some of you, but for those of you that just can't wrap a tight coil, this should help a lot.
