Yankee- how did you fix it? i recently bought some of these cuz i'm trying to take a break from wrapping coils until i get eye surgery. very, very tight draws.

i read Karen's linked post on drilling, but it seemed like those atties had holes on the sides that could be drilled. i see no side holes on these...

The holes are tiny and wrapping coils would probably be easier. I stick to atties due to the onset of carpal tunnel far too early in my life. I cut my losses and ordered three of the unsealed 510 atomizers from kidney puncher. Ten times better, pretty well made and six bucks a piece. Highly recommend them.

aah. thanks.

for the record, i was right-handed but my right hand went totally numb due to nerve damage a few years ago, so is now little more than a stump. my left hand has numb fingertips thanks to carpal tunnel, but is clumsily usable, more or less. but all that along with old man eyes, still allowed me to make coils in my RM2s until recently when my eyes decided to go a bit further south. (well, actually way south, but who's counting)

all i'm saying is wrapping coils is way easier than you think. if you haven't tried it yet, you should give it a shot. i found that wrapping them even with my hands was far easier than sticking the wires into the post holes, which is more of an eye thing. you can also buy pre-wrapped coils. and if you have an RM2 or something else that works on a Reo, i guarantee you that multiple Reonauts would be tickled to send you some coils.

Awesome! Glad to hear is easier than I thought. Probably going to pick one up in the next month or two
