Thank you...

[Kevin MacDonald]

...for all the advice I've received from various members as I begin coil building.
It's been invaluable.
I was using Kanthal A1 32 AWG wire and a 2mm drillbit with my fat thumbs.
It worked, but not great and as advised,

1. Referred to Steam Engine website before I started reference the safety.
2. I took delivery of 28 AWG wire and cotton bacon today.
3. Kept it simple and used my jewellers screwdriver to wrap.

The result simply amazed me.
I aimed for 1.5 ohms on the calculator and got 1.4, so much easier to wrap and the taste is better than anything I've made to date.

Thanks again guys
