Tootle Puffers, Part Three! (The Sequel of the Redux)

[DingerCPA]

Wowsers, nice job on the coil!
Except its upside down...

Start on the topside of the mandrel and wrap clockwise, that way when you rotate the coil 180 degrees for mounting there will be a leg on the left at the bottom and the right. This will allow you to pull the wire around the screws the proper way for tightening.

(Random Internet Picture)

You also have no where near enough Rayon in that coil, which is why you are getting the burnt hits. You have to use more Rayon than you would with cotton. I would probably use twice the amount you have there, holding the coil in place with a finger nail while pulling the Rayon through not tight enough that you cant pull, but tight enough that you need to keep the coil in place. Then pulling the wick back and forth so it will slide in the coil but not very easily. Fluff the wick ends, thin the density of the tail by half 1 or 2 mm away from the coil edge and trim so it just touches the deck.

juice up the wick, put the bottom part of the chimney on and adjust the wick away from the little juice channels inside.

I don't usually work with 30g, I put 28g in the Mini. I don't have any Mini build pics, but you want it to end up looking like this when it's wet.

The bottom tail going to the deck is like a Mullet if that makes sense.

Thanks, dear! Yeah - I want the legs of the coil to get caught in the screws, but I can't wrap a coil right-handed! (I tried one "underhanded" - didn't work well ) I will give it another try, tho. I did get bass-ackwards on the amount of rayon. I like the "mullet". It's so 80's

LOL!!!!!!


Forever NOW KNOWN as the TD Mullet build!!!!!! (love that!)

BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

You are correct, k2. They second one is a KFM PLUS, whereas the 19mm is a KFM.

And the variance in prices are (in this case) because they are two different attIEs. The slew of KFMs tho ..... the difference in price may have more to do with the manufacturer. I don't think it's all about the screwdrivers!

The SXK/Infinite usually make better clones, that would be my guess as to why its priced more. Its the one I would get!
The other ones, they dont have a brand except, A and B on FT lol

I agree, Mikey, and there is also another reason I chose that one. It comes with a beauty ring, and since that will LOOK nice.........

Haha, I forgot about the Beauty Ring!! Of course!

The coupon code "DEALS" is working on the SXK, but not on any of the others I'm selecting

Hmmm..... do you think perhaps it's because the sale starts tomorrow?

Ding, not bad! Not bad at all. It might be worth it to drain it tho, and get your wick thick. Thick wick. (why doesn't that remind me a man I used to date...) Oh welp, moving on.

Like a mullet! OMG, I love it!

The entertainment never stops, does it?

I don't use Rayon, so I can't say for sure, but the tails still look a bit short to me?

Good to see you back @sorrynomore - I'm not surprised the experience scared the begeezies out of you, but at least you're sorted now. Take it easy and take care

NOT fun.

I've seen coupons not work on certain items {shrug} I wouldn't mind a plus along with the SXK.... Still debating

Glad to hear you are doing OK and that you went in to be checked before it became even more serious. Scary for sure.

I heard "LABORDAY" gets 15% off everything tomorrow(FT), idk if its true yet though lol

I think it is!

Looks good, but trying it will tell you for sure. Rayon does have a learning curve and will take a while to get it bang on with coil density and tail trimming.

Juice it up and give it a go!

Beat ya to it

It's working pretty well - no "nastiness" as of yet, and I haven't had to prime between hits (and I even wrapped right-handed )

Thanks all, for your help!

Increasing the odds that I'm going to get the V3 Mini(s)
