Its really good, You can only fit about 4-6 wraps depending on how big the wire is you use (Alien and fused claptons) but it gives a nice hot vape...the machining is beyond perfect..
I have!It needs to be hot when he coils it so the wire can stretch. Red hot.
But a torch would probably break it too. It would need to be slow.
Crazy though.
This is what happens when you mess up an alien, back it up and save that turd.
Never done that before.
FuckIll get the sedatives ready
I couldnt find the actual pic of it coiled....so I screenshot the convo I shared it in...
What size fuse? Looks great. That's the main reason I'm getting the spool tamers. Ribbon stagger frames and staggertons.My first Staggered Ribbon Frame Build!
Pitchfork Variants:
View attachment 68954 View attachment 68956 View attachment 68953 View attachment 68952 View attachment 68955
I parallel claptoned the Ribbon frames on this one to ensure it was perfect but the Stagger is 38g and the Fuse is 40g.
UD and a few others are the same...I just like the Beadalon and they are usually cheaper anyways
Just think, with all the time Ive explored new builds and tried crazy things...Ive only invented a single build....and Ive only seen one other person replicate it (@Coil_Lab)..
This wire is similar to a Enigma but with a alien design centered, raised and flat, it ends before each frame wire also, I call it Alien Plateau Wire
Also, Im the first and only person to make a successful Alien coil with 50g wire.. ( Single PLY .3R/50g)
It's not actually wasted - think of it as "tuition"...
so... This is what my first attempt at a fused ALIEN coil 3strand looks like!! Pretty nice huh? I think I fucked up.. couldn't get it right.. only bout a half inch went right.. I realized you caint really "back up" as well as you can on a reg Clapton coils.. gotta find the right tension, speed and patience lol .
Ah! Will have to try that tomorrow night ! Thanks
I learned how to straighten wire and a little trick to hold them together and straight by wrapping a slider on it with 36g so I did learn a few things today. Any more tips would be helpful ! Should I try with a little bigger wire like 30g?
40 AWG was bad enough, once the wrap wire gets thinner even than that 'any' tension on it messes it up - well if its nichrome80 anyway - maybe there is other wire that won't snap or straighten when its that fine. Then there are practical vape reasons for not doing it like when you put a wire brush on the coils to clean them.....its gonna wreck them ha ha
Thanks man I will definitely try 2*24g with my 36g decore I got some 24 kanthal lying around here somewhere.. I think going straight to 3core 26g was a bit to much for my first time lol but what can I say ? Haha
With high gauge stuff I use a bigger decore, under stretch and just hammer the drill after the first wrap.With an alien you have to get several things going right at the same time. When you do get them all going right it is fairly straight forward but getting there costs you patience and wire and time. If you get the amount of core stretch, the feed in angle, feed tension and the cores held together right it becomes an easily repeatable method. I have no idea how Ray did it with 50 AWG wrap though, all I know about that is that it isn't something I would ever try to do

Lol crazy ray .. I don't know how he even has the patience for most of his builds.. but it's fun so it's more like determination with the will to coil haha!!With an alien you have to get several things going right at the same time.

I'm totally backwards on that. I feel like putting 2 4" passes over 10" of wire is easier. Farter away from the chuck and swivel.Shorter cores helps when you are learning too, just enough for one coil is much easier to keep from triangling up than 18 inches. And you mess up less wire each time you fail miserably
What do those coils ohm out to in dual set? What mod do you vape with?
First SSFC it a long time. 10ply 38g fuse.
Spool Tamers in bound.
I like to use the Wire Wizard on the Steam Engine website. It's usually right on spot with resistance, voltage, etc.
That works for a stagger fuse but not on a ssfc because the clap can't move.
Dude can that hohm wrecker really fire down to 0.007?
If I'm doing something weird like the helixed ssfc with SS frames I'll go to wire wizard.
It has a 45 amp limit. It will fire any coil but you might not have the power you need. It's really nice for coloring and pulsing because usually my coils start at 0.03-0.05 and end up at 0.1ish.
Why just for something weird? It works great for almost all build types/combinations.
I just needed to know if I could fire it or not.

It will work, I usually frame .4 in 28g or 26g. 30g would work best when framing .3.
When stacking .3 I found using the method that Mind Forge uses is the best. Have you watched his videos?
Yep. I'll get so far and the ribbon collapses. I float the ribbon like raymo does.
