I don't understand, did someone post these images already?
Yeah in this thread, someone posted @F4RR3LL's pic of the ribbon wickless build and claimed they did the edits, along with a TON of other popular builders' pictures claiming they were his or that he edited the images (by cropping & distorting the watermarks). I'm not hating on you, it's kind of a give credit where credit is due kinda thing.

Removed because of the duplication. I was never claiming the builds were mine, I was just sharing ones I found.
I know you weren't. But some other people want to think they can claim other people's builds & pics as their own edits, when all they really did was crop out the builders logos and blur the watermarks.
It's all good I didn't assume you were going to take credit for someone else's work

So jealous of this build. Tried it a few times and it just does not want to come together for me.

I ran out of alien, so:

I decided to wrap the rest in 40g. Goes from framed staple alien 4ply framed with 28 with a 38g alien, to a framed staple with 40g.

It took me 3 tries to get down right, but it's actually quite easy once you get the framed loop down. The wrap is the easiest part, prepping it is a PITA. No need to give up. It's all in the prep work before you even put it into the drill.

I gotta put in a new order for wire soon, so I'm going to get .5 and .8 kanthal and see if that is any easier to work with then the ni80 ribbon. On my last attempt, after lining everything up, the wrap didn't turn out as flat as I'd have liked, and coiling it messed it up for sure.
I'm not great at explaining how to do it, but @Retro138 or @Superfecta_ can definitely explain with pics on how to get it done right. I used .4x.1mm n80 ribbon from Lightning vapes for that wire & framed it in 28g. Ribbon is a process. I like the .4x.1mm because it's roughly the same width as 26g, with 26g having a .405mm diameter.

Just made these zipper coils tonight and wow...I like them way more than the fused claptons I had before! Clocks in at .2 and I'm in heaven, this was my first attempt at making them and it took quite a while but I think I did pretty good! :)
