~5 wraps of 34 gauge kanthal will give you ~3ohms, just sayin'. I've never been a LR vaper, I've preferred to bump up the volts.
...I get the "trying to build a sponge" thing, but I was actually trying to build the opposite...I wanted just enough cotton to avoid the kanthal on mesh metallic taste that I get with a lot of my fruit flavours (it's like fingernails on a chalkboard for me). As far as re-wicking, I pick off what I can then just torch the rest.
...those Cannons are easily the best/worst atty I've tried 
For me, it's definitely a habit that I then made into a hobby as well, and in multiple disciplines (mechanical, electrical, 'e-soup chemistry', and just enjoyment of the imaginative designs shared here).
Whatever you call it though, it's easy for me to justify with the resulting ease of spurning the analogs.
Habbit/Hobby + ECF = Plenty of fun in good company.
ETA: I had had a little trouble kicking analogs, but overall, it was an on/off thing with them and better vaping preparation and greater experimentation easily won out in the end.
Once used a clamp like that to make WollyBuggers and Royal Coachmen. Do you have your Kanthal thread feeding from a bobbin? Lol.Did you say "Threadstick"? I gave it a try Quigs. It's working good, but next time I think I'll try to wrap it a bit thinner and looser.
oh - and if anyone wonders about all those coil wraps, I was trying for high Ωs to see if I could warm up the vape on my GTUS. It's metering at 3Ω and the wick is keeping up with it at 5v, though I'm vaping it at 4.5v.
You mean you made the Cannon more of a monster than it is stock?, woh!, all you need to do now is figure out how make them stop leaking as fast as an excited puppy
That one of Chopper71's? Mines supposed to go out this week.
I have a few Cannons laying around collecting dust cause I cant deal with the leaks. Would you consider putting together a rebuild tutorial so the rest of us can have a go with these monsters?The way I made this Cannon it doesn't leak a drop, not a 1, and man let me tell ya it is a freaking monster,,, doing the same thing with the joy Mega Atty's too, huge ceramic cups big coil all wrapped with the mesh, small piece under the cup, then another piece wrapped around the cup, do the same thing with 510 Atty's, turns them all into vaping monsters and the flavor is doubled easy.
