What do you use to wrap your coils?

[oDANo]

I've been looking to purchase things on amazon as a set of different sizes to wrap my coils, I was looking into drill bits, but what do you guys use and where can I buy them in different sizes?

Usually... a micro screwdriver set will have some usable sizes (micro coils, by definition, are 1/16" and smaller)... with the side benefit of having a micro screwdriver set. ;-)

Like this for example. http://www.amazon.com/Tool-135-0916-16-Piece-Precision-Screwdriver/dp/B000BDDG8Y

I use a drill bit, 3/32". Any hardware or home improvement store will have them.

They're nice, to be sure....
But....being the che.....errr.....FRUGAL person I am....I made my own with a block of scrap wood, a machine screw and a 1/16" steel rod...
Looks like swill....but works GREAT!!
Happy (vaping) Trails!

Just get you a cheap little drill bit set then you can play around with different sizes that you might like.

I wrap my micro coils using a 1/16 drill bit...

I wrap most of mine on 1.8mm or 2mm bicycle spokes.
I sharpen the ends on a grinder and they make great tools for adjusting coils and removing orings.
Or drill bits of various sizes.
My goal is to use tools that make coil wrapping a repeatable process.
