I was watching one of the uk vids and he is using a bit of saran wrap (on the mesh) at the point of the wick hole to isolate the wick from touching the sides of the hole/body. Ever though of putting a small silicone piece in the wick hole to keep the mesh from touching the sides?

There is only one device I know of (Zen) using an isolator in the wick hole, and it doesn't ensure there won't be hot spots. An isolator will also reduce the size of the wick that can fit in the hole, and we all know bigger is better when it comes to wicks (TWSS). If the wick is oxidized correctly, and it isn't too tightly fit (causing the oxidation to scrape off) it's not really needed. I've seen this video posted quite a few times in the last few days. It's a nice little cheat for the beginner, but once you get the feel for your atomizer, it's not needed. This is similar to the rizla trick. It works, but it isn't a substitute for a proper set-up.
In the end, do what works for you though.
This is merely my opinion, and should in no way be taken as fact.

I did think about the wick hole being made smaller which in turn means you would have to make smaller wicks. Back to waiting. Thanks for the response AG
Hi, can somebody point me to the order spreadsheet? I want to ensure I'm on there. This will be my first, and having it all set up and ready to go for me was why I pulled the trigger. Thank you.
Just want to chime in here. I thing AG is right on the money. Having a plastic insert in the wick hole is not necessary at all. It took me 2 months of trial and error to figure out how to wrap a Genesis coil. Now that I have I can roll one in 30 seconds without much fiddling to remove any hot spots.
I suggest not to worry too much about the plastic insert and focus more on learning how to roll it correctly and most importantly on how to oxidize a wick properly.

Don't you love a guy who makes it like you want it?
Nice show Mr. Herron.
well I hate olives on my pizza and if I ordered a pizza and the pizza guy told me to just eat it , I would walk away . who am I to say what everyone preference is , there is some things i do have to draw the line at but I try to be flexible . Honestly this is how im used to working anyway my daily profession is tattooing and I dont always agree with my clients requests but at most I try to meet at some kind of middle ground .
Jherron is it possible for quad wick holes? want to try dual U'ey, I'm only going to use dual coils.
I have to imagine that at some point you run out of real estate on top of the atty- is 4 even possible (i.e. are there others that have dual wick setups)?
It's possible for it to be made for dual u wicks. Might be a tight squeeze for a fill hole though. The u wicks wouldn't be very large either.
i have a few atomizer bodies laying around that were screw ups ill use those to test fit , to see if i have enough room its going to be tight , its a pretty narrow atomizer . but ill give the it good ol' college try
Jherron, about how many do you make per week? Curious about the wait. Not excited or anything.
this week ive managed to fit in 7 , but im working out a deal with my boss to cut my hours to help speed this up a bit , ive already cut down to 4 day work week , i think im going to try to cut down to 2 days , my day job has been slow lately so its a good possiblity it may work out . plus the more i do the faster im getting , and the less screw ups i have to toss to the side . i hoping i can eventually make 20 a week
