Orchid v5 trouble

Hi all, so I am really new at building and went to rewick my orchid v5, all went well until I went to fill it and all the liquid went straight out the top. I am sure I am doing something silly wrong, I have 7 wraps of 26gauge which comes out to .5ohms and he coils are doing just fine.

Then I place my wicks and fidget with them to get the chimney housing on, and when all is said and done and I flip it to put juice in through the screw hole, it all dumps right out. Sigh.

Like I said, I am sure I am doing something super obvious wrong, any thoughts? Also j wasn't sure if this needed to go here or in the help forum, sorry if it's in the wrong place

I figured it out and I feel super stupid. There was an o ring on the chimney that got knocked to the bottom, it has to sit at the very top of it to seal right. Hope it helps someone else

We all have made goofs like that. Don't feel stupid. At least your goof will help someone else.

That's why I figured I'd post my mistake, since there wasn't anything I could find. Oh well :)
