Yeah I'll keep my coil in my kanger for months. I think I posted it few pages back. It's a total flavor beast. I'm still daily chain vaping my little ego one mini, kanger gets use if I'm in a mood, and my rx200s with the goon and avocado rta get the least amount of use, yet the goon is what I'm always building on 
The problem I have with avocado is that it's a massive juice junkie. If I was to solely vape the avocado I would easily fly through 30ml or even 60 per day. Making the juice on my own helps but I'm not screwing around with recipes cause I'm always building

I put this 30ga Radiator build in it to test an idea.
I kid you not, that tank was full 12 puffs at 75W ago.
If I take three puffs in a row the level drops noticeably.
My avocado is just sitting on my coffee table taking a long nap. Haven't used it for at least a week. I actually go through a LOT LESS juice dripping the goon.
And I have an amazing build in that avocado
but the whole concept of wasting all that premium juice is seriously discouraging. Sigh, I should mix some stuff up tonight after I'm done with the new build

Can some one point me in a direction?
I just found this thread or I'd have posted sooner.
I want to learn how to build exotic coils like these.
When I started vaping I went straight to RTAs. I knew ohms law from competitive audio stuff and working with metals came naturally as I am a black smith.
I need some literature on exotic coils. I'd rather it be picture and text based if possible.
I build for everyone I know and they always say "How'd you make those look so perfect?" and I always say something like "All I did was wrap a wire around a rod..."
I've been using LV clapton for months now and it's getting stale.

Ok let me take a deep breath. Almost got lucky enough to alien about an inch of wire yesterday and that was it...yeah! Not happy at all but not giving up yet. @ the pros, is there a specific way to align the to staggered cores when building a staple staggered clapton? I tried to build one today an it was a disaster...I find that I can't hold the wire in one position. It feels as if I have to swing the wire back and forth to get it in the slots as opposed to just holding it at an angle. Also when I stagger the cores and cut into 2 pcs the slopes are at an angle not straight. Tips?

Like any other skill start at the beginning. Claptons. Look on YouTube and you'll find plenty of tutorials. Everything builds off this.
OhmboyOC has plenty. Twisted messes has some.

Just made the most delicate coil I've ever made.
Triple parallel triple twisted 36ga Radiator
Vapes like 30ga. PITA to make.

The art of vaping is awesome for learning but the hard part is actually building the coil. I've mastered a few builds by asking the pros like Slip, Tom and the rest of the heavy builders but actually doing it takes time patience and a whole lot of wire....
Are you using a drill or a hand crank? Best advise is go slow very slow if you are making these types of coils by hand. If you are using a geared worm drive jig make sure your math is right.
Then I must really piss you off bro with all my stitched and hollow aliens tricked out
Sorry dude. Ok look, there is A LOT that goes into making an alien wire. I can pull off an alien in all of 10 to 15 minutes from start to finish but I've also went through a little bit of a learning curve. Here's few tips that should help :
1- your Clapton HAS TO be tight and perfect, if there are spaces or whatever at some points the stretch is gonna f.. K up later on. Get that part perfect first. You need at least 7-8 inches.
2- once stretched it should look like a corkscrew. Stretch too much and it won't form an alien, don't stretch enough and you'll pull too hard on it and the wires will triangle
3- your cores HAVE TO be perfectly parallel. The moment you start noticing that they're gonna triangle you need to adjust it RUGHT AWAY. If you stall or just keep going it'll get a lot worse a lot faster and then bye bye alien
4- go slow, seriously, go slow. Use magnifying goggles if you have to watch each wrap. Use swivels to your advantage if you want to as well. Hit me up if you're still struggling
As Boden said YouTube, look up twisted messes, squidood, ohmboyoc, search for Clapton coil, staggered coil, alien coil, ribbon wire and so forth. From there on it's learning, experimenting and so forth
Be safe, make sure you're using a meter. When you get into very advanced builds steam engine basically goes out the window.
Get used to it man. I'm not trying to be an ... but that's the fact. We all go through tons of wire especially when we're learning something new, a new method, a new build, and what not. It's just part of it.
Trying to decide if Clapton ribbon Clapton would look better than ribbon Clapton ribbon. Thoughts?
This is 3mm ribbon 44/40 Clapton btw
This is 3mm ribbon 44/40 Clapton btw
What's happening at this fine morning hour (3:12am to be exact) is.....
36/44 clapton core corrugated, walled by 2x3mm corrugated ribbons, slightly braided with 40, happily chillin on 20x3mm ribbons
Gonna stagger walls tomorrow and either tsuka it or tsuka and wire staple it

36/44 corrugated Clapton, walled by 3mm corrugated ribbon, hand braided a little, sitting on 20x3mm ribbon, staple tsuka wrapped in 3mm/44
Thank you. Yeah, and corrugated. And 44 staple around the tsuka wrap. Originally did 44/40 but I wasn't digging it for some reason
