problems with kanthal wire please help me

I wrap around a 14 gauge blunt tip needle, because I'm basically lazy and it already sitting there on the desk on my juice bottle.

I wrap around a 14 gauge blunt tip needle, because I'm basically lazy and it already sitting there on the desk on my juice bottle.

sounds like hard work to me. i use the gizmo to make about a dozen coils in 5 or so minutes and typically don't build a coil again for months on end.

Yeah, it looks like a great idea so I got one, but it wouldn't work for this eBaron I'm currently playing with. You kinda have to wrap the coil around the wick.

Thanks for the advice i made successful coils with the 28 and 30 gauge by twisting 3 strands together im going to work on the braiding it next
