I didn't know where to post this so I figured I'd try this.

I've seen a lot of interesting ways to install a wick on drippers. Currently I'm doing the dragon coiled wick on a dual coil. I like the extra juice absorption and the ease of threading it UNDER the coils and OVER, rather than through, particularly when you're doing micro and nano coils. However, I find it hard sometimes, with my cotton balls material, to always get the right density to cover the coil, i.e. sometimes it peeks through and I don't get even burn of the juice.

So, can you all please tell me what some of the ways you put your wicks in are, and maybe post pics??? Name of the wick system, etc.?

Use more cotton lol

^kinda self explanatory I guess. Here is a build I found last night, tried it out and perfect function imo so maybe this will help

the tails will need fluffed and put under your coil to cover up the extra surface area

I've been experimenting with different wick methods too. So far I'm finding that in my nano coils, it's been working better with the wick underneath the coils and around them. Ive found that if the cotton goes too far from the coil, it doesn't wick right. Dries it by the coil and the ends are still wet.

I used a dental pick to pack the excess more around the coil and it made a huge difference. And dried out more even.
