So, my stepfathers Nimbus clone came in yesterday, and I was taking a closer look and one of the posts is a little twisted. I'm almost positive I can fit kanthal through it fine, and the hole isn't like completely turned to the right/left, but it's still pretty noticeable and I'm worried it could cause a problem or something and don't want to rebuild it with the chance of it blowing up on me. Will it work fine? Will it short out? Is it safe? Should I just be careful with it? What precaution should I take? Really needing assistance on this one.

As you can see, the post is twisted a little bit. I thought maybe I could twist it to how it should be, but it won't budge. The best picture I could take. unnamed.jpg

My friend bought the same atomizer and if I remember correctly it came with a dual coil set up on it and it worked fine for him and I even set up a single micro coil on it. He posts were twisted worse then that. It takes some wiggling of the wires to get the coil to sit where you want. Good thing about wire is it bends where you need it to go.
