Post your coil art! Not your awesome builds. There are a few different threads for that here already. Some very talented people, I might add.

No, I want to see your artistic flair come out!

Here's my first. A simple staged Clapton build with a few photo enhancements:

Not quite coil art, but vape art nonetheless - A vapor pic by @jamey554 that I doctored up to look artistic:

Of course - anyone can.

I just don't want this thread to turn into another "cock strutting" thread where people show off their awesome builds. Yes, there are some incredibly talented coil builders out there. I hope to be one some day. But there are already many threads available for "coil porn", and I want this to be just what the title says - an artistic side of coil building.

First try with some photo editing software on my new s6 edge.

Single coil of twisted 24 gauge kanthal wrapped in 32 gauge kanthal. Really good flavor and decent clouds.

I think I do better vapor art than coil art. Maybe you should make a thread for that, I'd be there more often haha.

Post it up here - we'd love to see it!
As long as it's artistic in nature (and nothing like, "'Ooh, look at my big clouds" type stuff) then it's fine. Again, there are many other threads already dedicated to that kind of thing.

Its 26 gauge ni80 Clapton'd with 32 ga ni80 and wrapped with 28 nickel.


Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
Just redid it kinda. Had some left over 26/32Clapton, tossed it in the drill, twisted it in the drill.
Went back and did some 30 ni80 Clapton'd with 34 ni80(can't find my 38) and put it in the twist, I believe thats called helix?

Beautiful pictures. Are you snapping them with your default lens or an attachable one?

Ps I attempted to twist 2 twisted strands of 24 with 4 twisted strands of 32. It was a mess haha.

I've got an attachable lens kit, a cheapo, that I recently rediscovered in the house. I'll test it out next time I post a picture here.

It would be a Helix if you then took another wire or two in went in the cracks following the path, but overall nice twisted dual clapton build.
If you remake it add a single strand to it to make it a helix,, it will be similar to this (with same build)

It is in the cracks it follows I started at the base of the twisted clapton and skipped every two bumps and laid the Clapton in and skipped two and laid in. Then back in the drill and snugged it up to sink the other wire

Its that just with another Clapton instead of a single wire. Course I'm not up major on terms but that's what I did

That was my boo boo. Didn't have my 38ni80 so the last wire was 28/34
The primary was 26/32

There's nothing artistic about any of these recent posts. Awesome cloud and build pics are a dime a dozen, and should be posted elsewhere. There are already multiple threads for those. I use them myself. I DON'T post my "Cool build, bro" pics in this thread. Neither should you. Please leave your ego out of this thread and try to keep things artistic. The thread's title is "Coil Art", remember??? Thanks.

Kinda following by your examples in the op. Just builds with different effects on them, exactly like you did. But I digress and respectfully exclude myself from your thread.

Anyone can use a different shade on a pic but I guess pics arent cool enough for this thread, I also will back out...enjoy your thread...
Not everything is a ego based when contributing to a thread..some people see different things in pictures and thats what makes it art, but I respect your take on what you want to view.

Okay, I'm not trying to offend ANYONE. I started this thread for anyone who wants to share some ARTISTIC photos of their builds.
I'm not trying to pick on anyone in particular.

This is coil art (not mine):

This is not coil art (not mine either):

Is that too much to ask in a thread titled "Coil Art"?
