You can get the gizmo at Michael's or other type craft stores. don't bother with the heat and crimp before mounting. Make the coil, mount it in the rba, then pulse and squeeze. You could also try old school "ugly", where wraps don't touch.
That would be a HRH coil right there!
What i'd not considered is the wicking material, i use silica only or some readywick. I'm not into combustible wicks because they last so short a time.
I did try cotton about 18 months ago, just organic cotton - and i'd be rewicking daily. My silica never varies in diameter and in a lot of cases, like 'ugly' coil above - i'll just wrap straight on it.

I hear you ST, but I personally hate silica. Cotton is all I can pallette and I don't mind rewicking daily 
Muzik thanks for the link - will buy that
I may try an ugly coil sometime just for the heck of it

i doubt there's anything wrong with your coils - i make mine on a 2mm screwdriver. I do have a coil jig, but i use it for brutal R41 coils is all.
Hope the KGD is easier to use, cos i always struggled with cotton (but it's cheap and plentiful).

I cannot imagine having to re-wick that often. That coil and wick in the above photo will last me over 3 months. I'm using ceramic readyXwick
I would rather re-wick daily myself than use anything like that. That's what is great about vaping - we can use what we want, so many choices
knowing that my coil will sort of sizzle with no juice on it, still think nothing's wrong with my coil?

Some people love the sizzle and would really like you explain how you do it. I know, right. but there are posts in here asking how to build for sizzle and popping.
LOL! sizzle after the firing has stopped and mouth off the drip tip? LOL!
Well honestly I think the subpar taste is more due to paranoia and a stuffy nose today - I think I'm just gonna stop worrying so much about it and vape it like I stole it or what have you.
edit - also, might add that if I continue to draw for a split second after releasing the fire button it usually doesn't sizzle.

i only get the thing still cooking when i use low gauge wire since it takes a while to cool back down. I don't get it with 30g, but i do if i make a big fat 26g one.
All my coils pop; i think it's the mix of juice i make - i have always thought of it as the promise of vaping goodness!
Since i'd be a fine one to talk if i said make sure your mod is clean and the switch works fine - i'll not do that

my mod is actually clean, I thinkMy coils tend to pop too and I do love that. seems a bit strange that some would sizzle after firing and some wouldn't at 28ga. but I'll roll with it - and re-coil tomorrow for fun and to try and get a better coil on there.
Update - this isn't even a problem at all I don't think. took a long break from vaping (forced upon me by work and other circumstances) so my ability to taste the juice rejuvinated a bit. that sizzle doesn't seem to be affecting the taste at all 
it's just intimidating.

You need another Reo filled with unflavored to help cure vapors tongue quickly.

Filthy-Enabler is more like it
and right you are sir...
Ok this thing is rather handy. I did probably the worst job possible with it and thus far seems like the best coil ive ever made. no washer or nut - so wrapped it first around where those would go. So that leg wound up being a total mess - not straight, tons of warps and bends etc. Still managed to get the leg through the post so i mounted the coil. 1 ohm. rocking hard. the wraps aren't even perfectly touching but it's rocking really well. REALLY well.
Maybe by not continuing to draw for a split second after releasing the button, you're getting a fair amount of condensation that causes more sizzle on the next vape?
You might try wrapping a couple more wraps and when you cut the leg that is out of whack, unwrap that leg a wrap or two to get the leg tight and straight.
I always wrap extra wraps, then with the coil still on the pin pull slowly on a leg the coil will spin while the wrap unwinds. I do this to both sides and have nice tight end wraps when I'm done.
I need to drill out my air hole on my one RM2 that I use on my regular REO Grand. After vaping on the Odin on my LP REO, the draw is way to tight for me. I understand that I am able to do this by hand with a drill bit. If not, someone let me know please.
Yes you can do this with just the bit and no drill, the top cap is pretty soft and doing it by hand allows you to do a bit at a time, I have done my caps this way and I have old lady hands lol
