Cut a little long and file the last bit as needed. With the grub screw entering from the side, you should be able to take it down pretty close to the top of the post hole, if you have to.
Wish I would have known your participation could put a hex on this preorder.
Did you here any word on a ship date?
I think all pre orders are crap, every single one I'm in on has a way of screwing me. I finally got a hold of them through Facebook and they said they "started shipping" which means they haven't in my eyes. They said they'd post another Google doc with tracking. Whatever that means, I've never heard or seen that way of giving out tracking before. I'm not too happy considering I ordered Friday and paid Monday morning and it still isn't even shipped yet. That and the people that didn't even pre order it already have it considering sites had them conveniently a day or 2 after that Google doc went live.

It's ok I'll have it just in time for when the low pro v2 releases.

Just get an Origen 3 and be done with it. Im trying to find something to dethrone it but good luck. I still like other atties for diffrent reasons but the Origen takes the cake.
no, I didn't buy into the velocity hype but wanted to try it... so I don't mind throwing 12 dollars down the drain
I am in love with my Big Block v2! Solid flavor. Perfect size. No leaking (unless over-filled). Perfect little drip tip (but it is a solid-state tip). But what's cool about the tip is it will accept any 510 tip inside of the solid-state tip (but it's not my kinda look). And for some reason it is not producing much spit-back for an atty this size (just a smidgen of a little spray, but barely noticeable). I ain't got time (right now) to mess with the vertical coils though, so I run mine with dual-horizontals of 24 gauge around a 3 mm bit with about 5 wraps each. It'll definitely take a quad of 24 gauge, but I doubt it would be able to handle anything thicker. And this atty is kinda pre-dating the Clapton craze, so it was never meant for cables! LOL
This joker is much smaller than I thought it would be too. Happy camper.....
The only thing about it that is less than ideal is too drip, you either have to drip through the tip (not a problem) or take off the entire barrel. No top cap to take off. Other than that (and it's no biggie), I love it.
Also, @MrNobody , if you are just running duals like I am, you don't need 4 screws in (if trapping under the screws) which will leave you a bit more room for cotton (for those without this atty, you wouldn't quite get why this is the case if using horizontals). Keeping the ring on is necessary, but you don't have to trap under it. But if doing horizontals, I do not think a quad is possible unless two or more coils share a wick; too many tails would be too cramped--obviously verticals have one tail and it is directly under the coil..

Can you post some pics of your build. I dont care that you cant slap giant coils in it. I will be getting one, just letting my buddy play around with it for another week and tell me how he feels after spending some time with it. $45 at local vape, pffffft.
Aw man, you gonna make me take pics of some dirty porn? This ain't the pretty, air-brushed kind. LOL. It's straight and to the point; no 80's saxophone included. I won't even change out the wicks. Eww.. Give me a few.

It ain't pretty, but it sure does perform. To stretch this metaphor, this build was a quickie if I've ever had one! Funny how the quickies can sometimes be so good, though. LOL
I cant wait to get one....soon. im getting an authentic (obviously) Nikita box for my birthday from the wife. Sooooo stoked for that.
Ah, what the hell! I decided to try a quad coil. I think it was 9 wraps each at 24 gauge on a 3 mm bit, coming in at ~.2Ω.
Pretty easy to install. I am not concerned with perfection as I just want to try it.
Wick'd up. Note: whenever I do vertical coils, I ALWAYS juice from the bottom to make sure the liquid rises. This was taken under a minute after I added liquid to the well. Already rising. Now I can juice down.
Gave a hair cut and about to vape...
A bit too much for me. But, good. I prefer duals. Granted, this is my first ever quad coil so I am not sure if I should've done it one way or another, but it vapes fine, just a bit too aggressive. Vaping it at 90 watts just too move all these coils at once. I think a smidgen larger ID and fewer wraps may be better (maybe a different gauge?). But, I wanted to try it after posting my horizontals. I can say I've done it now. Back to my preferred vape style.
Edit: Here is the spit-back! This feels like the devil's gleet!
Sheesh. It goes away quickly, but at first! Watch out. I barely had any at any time with my horizontals.

With that many coils definitely build lower so the ramp up time won't be bad, also N80 nichrome works wonders for this kind of stuff because it ramps up a lot faster than kanthal, I don't know about quads haven't tried them yet but this is kinda my vape style bigger builds with shorter draws. I just don't like taking long draws 1-2 second draws and still get a nice mouthful of vapor. Build looks real nice though! Are you still using VCC? I got my VCC a few days ago I notice it gives considerably more spit back/juice in mouth than the bacon does. The VCC looks real nice almost like silk but honestly I kinda think it's better for bedsheets than it is for vaping at this point. Still gonna play with it though.
Just put a quad in mine and really enjoying it. Quad 24g, 2.5mm ID, 6 wraps coming in at .12 ohms vaping at 115w. Vapor is warm, dense and very flavourful. I'm honestly surprised at this atty, was really easy to build and wick and gives off amazing flavor. Think my next build will be the same except I'll use 316SS instead of kanthal.Ah, what the hell!

Yea, definitely gotta build lower for that much wire, I've seen some people doing quads in the Pheno, I might try that tomorrow just to mess around and see how it is. I think it will be a pain in the .... with only 2 holes to work with though..
