I just updated my tracking number, and my MVP 2 is at the PO ready for pickup!!!
I never heard of using cheesecloth but it sounds good to me.
The thing a jig does is make it easier to wind a tight coil since it helps hold the wire while you are wrapping, without it I find myself wishing I had a few more hands. lol
It doesn't matter how pretty it is as long as you get the ohms you want and it works.

Girlfriend found local tobacco shop is starting ecigs. They make in house flavors. Cinnamon roll tastes like the cinnamon glazed pecans you can get at festivals. Mmmm. Now I gotta find out who they use for flavorings.
Lol, try being in a town of 1400 and not even having a drug store. If you can't get it at the dollar store or a small hardware store it better be online

If you're building micro coils the 30ga should be fine, if you have trouble with that being too small try 28ga with a 3mm wick. When I rebuild later today I'll take a shot of my coil on an Igo-w

Here's a pic of the Neme in 18500 mode.
That is very nice looking!
Almost worth learning how to rebuild.
ALMOST.
I think my next order from FT is going to be all the different protank and evod heads. Ugh, but eventually something will work.
Shari - have you considered their pre wrapped wicks? It's not ideal, but I keep seeing good reviews and other posts referencing that's what they are using. Like I said, not the first choice but for <$5 could come in handy.
You must be about as far north as I am. We just got more ice and snow the last 2 days

Claudia, that's exactly what I use, on 3mm ekowool I only need about 4-5 wraps and I am around 1.2-1.4 ohms which is great on my kamry

A diet? YIKES. Diets don't work IMO. I have to do something because of a bigger goal, feeling healthier as an example. Lifestyle changes. That's been my approach. That's why I have so many batteries, mods and now focusing on eliquids. It's gotta be ready to go with no fuss, i.e. more convienent than buying a pack - which is a bit of a challenge in this rebuildable world lately. But that's what keeps me vaping. The WTA is invaluable in my arsenal also. Maybe it's time to throw that in again??? Did you drop your nic level or maybe you could keep a higher level around for the rough spots???
I'm really just brainstorming here. Anxiety, stress, anger, pain are all -> smoking for me. A laugh, I recently broke down and got some Pluid. Holy cow that stuff is strong. I can't vape it for a long time but it does cut the urges down. I think about any in your face type flavor might work to take the edge off. Although WTA still works better. Like I said, just brainstorming. Be kind to yourself.
Oh yea - patience. I'm still working on taking a decent pic. At least this shows more detail. Still haven't gotten the nack of it.

That's pretty much what I do. When I get a new Atty I keep all the spare parts in little dime bags from the craft aisle in Walmart.
My wire costs under $10 for a 10 meter spool and the wick is about $8 for a meter so its worth it for me to just rebuild

There is the coil I just wrapped for my igo-w. Nothing pretty but it get about 1.3 on the meter and is about 2 inches of wire and wick total with the wick doubled over.
It would already be on my device but a friend just called with a couple micro coils for me to try... might be switching to them very soon lol

good afternoon! I hope you all had a great day today!
Shari, I am just under the weather from the constant changes of temperature, it's mostly arthritis and nerve damage that causes the troubles.(at least, that's what I think it is)
Everybody sounds like they are getting these coils, I have the Artistic wire jig thing but I have not tried it yet. Soon enough!

I use their evod heads a lot. I buy the multicolor 10-packs (and my daughter steals all the good colors)... I've learned to love lime green and mandarin orange, sigh.... They are very serviceable, aren't the greatest at vapor production but we all use them a lot.
As for the (mini) protanks:
I liked this one, but wasn't sure if the tank was actually glass (At the least it has a plastic coating on the outside). Does have a removable drip-tip, which is good; I'm not crazy about the metal tip it comes with:

These 2 I got in the same order, and I can't tell which is which:

The one I've been using has kind of weird threads - they're very short, so it only goes on about a turn or so. Also, the drip tips aren't replaceable, and because they're fairly massive, the head tends to vape "cold" to me. I was surprised at how long the mini-protanks are - kind of like having the empire state building on top of your mod.
I was surprised, but I really do like this one:

It can be a real bear to get it unscrewed, but I think it gives a great flavor!

Ok, WHERE'S THE PAPERCLIP???????????

The gold one in the pic is the https://www.fasttech.com/p/1481100
I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the ones you posted either. Good to know about that vivi tank. It was on my wishlist (which is about 7 pages now). There's a FT thread on ECF and I've gotten a lot of good reccomendations there; stuff I missed and I'm addicted to checking it daily.
I bought the aluminum hypertank from FT and compared it with the black chrome I got stateside (authentic) and FT's is better. No leaks. Protank coils fit perfect (genuine). There's only a $1 difference between them (and 3 weeks) but I'm getting another through FT. Some of their stuff is better. They have a clear one that's gotten thumbs up and on my must have list. I vape a lot of tank killer liquids.

But figuring out heads is a nightmare - that's not just FT though. You know there are at least 4 variations of genuine Kanger protank heads? Aarrgghh. It's not like Kanger announces when they make changes. That's what I mean by "getting Kangered", i.e. a new verb IMO. It makes buying genuine useless. I give up and I tried. Lesson learned.

Actually I'm pretty deep south, midlands of South Carolina. We rarely have snow so it shuts everything down. I want the 70'F back like I had last weekend!!! 
Yep, diets suck and so do cravings. It's all mental, I'm going through a rough time AGAIN without my best friend, so it's probably a little rougher than it would be with my old friend. It's all going to work out, I am NOT giving in this time, I seriously can't afford to smoke. I need to invest in some WTA again, that stuff rocks. It'll have to wait until tax refund time, though, so for now I'm still using my 24mg handmade liquids and white knuckles, with the occasional Newport thrown in just to screw everything up!
So complicated. And yes, I think I need some tobacco flavors again. I'll go dig through the steeping box and see what's hiding in there that I haven't gotten burned out on yet. Thanks for your suggestions!Speaking of paying more and getting less, I bought a "Kanger" MT3S from a local b&m a while back. Turns out it was the same damn thing I had bought from FT and paid a third of the price. Unless Kanger changed the mouthpiece of the MT3S to clear, then I'm completely off base, but I thought the mouthpiece was black. Anyway, beggars can't be choosy and I had broken my last one so it was an emergency. Have quite a few in the cart at FT for a pre-emptive strike against the next emergency.
Had to leave work early today due to after-school activities being cancelled. School and work are called off for tomorrow. Did a little cleaning around here and watched a lot of TV, with more of the same tomorrow. We'll be covered in ice, not too much fun to play in, and praying not to lose power/water again. Hope you're all staying warm and dry out there, and be safe!
