My sincerest apologies to the provarinatis. I've never owned one and until it was metioned, I've never even seen one! So Pdib, please email me your drawings and I'll rectify this blasphemy asap. :facepalm:

So it's a case of parallel evolution.
That's the only thing I don't like of that atom ;)

So I have been ordering some of my new drip tips from an up-and-comer in the decorative drip tip arena. He makes 3-piece tips w/ interchangeable cores... I like being able to dress up my tips like i can swap out certain mod doors.

Anyways, i ordered one for the Simian and had requested a matte black core.

What arrived?

The missing dingle-dangle of the Simian!

Thank you Sam! It is amazing!

I cant help but think that a certain bee played a role in this little ditty! [emoji12]

quick question just to confirm my understanding of dual coils:
If I install two 1 ohm coils will my net resistance be .5 ohms?
Thank you,
Russ
(in parallel) yes.
You can calculate it with R1*R2/R1+R2, but with equal values of resistances it's just half of one of them.

Sitting in Chicago waiting for connecting flight now. Took the red eye out of Alaska and stealth vaped in my window seat most of the way when the cabin lights were down. Does that qualify for a form of mile high club?

It should. If not, at the very least a watch list or two.

Yup, what xpen said. Half's the resistance.

the square hole in the atty base would be the whole challenge to this design, depending on the minimum diameter mill it would have rounded corners
EDM using graphite electrodes can produce rectangular blind holes with with good sharp corners. You make the graphite electrode in whatever shape you want, then you burn the hole into the steel. It's neat process, and it's not even all that high-tech -- the company I worked for right out of college made precision molds that way.

If you were doing it by yourself, no. Now if you had a hottie in the seat next to you that you were sharing the experience with, then definitely. :D

my thoughts were to use either the one opposite one or the 2 side ones, was thinking more of either single or dual, not so much quads

that center block could also be altered slightly and be made to retain the wire right in the center too, in that case could make 4 neg holes around the block instead

That's what I guessed. I think pdib wants the atty to be as flexible as possible, so he might want quad coil setups to work. Personally, I only build singles, so the simpler the atty, the better it is for me. :)

Haven't noticed any problems, and it and I got plenty wet and cold at Mendenhall Glacier.

Awesome! Glad to hear that. I guess it should do fine in my climate. I can't wait for my turn to come up. It's true that the closer your turn gets, the longer the wait seems. :D

ValHeli, did you fly off? Sayang we didn't get to meet... :( Sorry my schedule is all over the place. Apart from my day job, I shuffle between my two waffle stands at night.

I tried that titanium. (btw; it wasn't the seller who answered my question. It was some helpful ___________e.)

This came out sometimes reading 0.10, but mostly reading 0.00Ω. I didn't vape it. Here's how I'm prepping the center leg, tho.
