My first Clapton coil, I went fused with 24nichrome core wrapped with 34kanthal, best flavor ever!

Thanks, I'm going to have to perfect the wrapping, the length I used was super short, I messed up the rest lol

well go on then Froth tell me what that wire is 
the only thing that looks close that ive used is some 20ga A1 that i flattened, and is a really good vape
i had been using a small hammer i bought espiecally for flattening but when i decided to flatten some 20ga i went and got my full size claw hammer, worked a treat, i tried it on the cat track wire and it did a better job quicker without breaking the wire like i thought it might do as its a much heavier hammer than i used previously, here's a pic of the wire i did with it....

Some really awesome looking matrix coils there guys! 
Here's simple but effective. I've been building for a couple three months now, now on a regulated mod the past few weeks (Sigelei 100+, which has been great).
Did this build with surface area in mind...
24g duals, 12 wraps, .4Ω.
Tugboat clone, organic cotton. Been vaping @ around 44 watts, 4.5 volts.
Yum!
Happy vapor trails!

Second attempt at a twisted coil. First one was a loooong time ago and it was a total failure.
But THIS one turned out pretty dang good! I used some leftover bits of flat and regular kanthal so I'm not sure of the gauges; I think the regular kanthal is 28 gauge though.
I guess this is a.....tiger coil? I can't judge flavor because I've got a REALLY bad head cold, but vapor production at about 4V is what I expect out of a .55 ohm coil. Heats up fast and cools down quick enough. It's a juice HAWG though, heh! And not that it matters much, but this is a Tugboat clone on a VaporShark rDNA40.

With the way it appears to be spitting and popping the flavor should be pretty darn good.
I'm hoping it is. I can't shake this cold. Cannot taste a single thing. Nothing at all, food nor smoke joose.
And I managed to get that shot at the exact moment i hit the fire button on my VaporShark, after it had been sitting for a few
minutes. Once it's firing it doesn't spit 'n crackle quite so much. But yeah, I DO enjoy that. I like a noisy coil.
(cept for that ridonkulous "turbo" atty, that just ain't my bag)

AMD,
What an inspiration bro. I had the exact same plan for my K4 when it gets stateside. Loving it bro

Sounds like what I had just after the first of the year. Nothing had any taste, but all my tanks and feeders only tasted badly.
That said, I have a Derringer coming soon! Should be here Friday!
Yep, it's still got me. Fever is down but still all kindsa snot events!
Keep us updated on the Derringer. I'm interested in those as well!

Will do. I have started the move to smaller RDA types and noticed much better vapor production and flavor.
Sick dude!! I gotta try this next!
