I think that's the one of the tightest staggs i've seen perfect!Alien stagg, 5x28g/36g. 3mm, 4.5 wraps.

Awesome! I really kinda want another ktx before their gone uuuggh lol
When I ordered mine from him last week he said only 1 black one left. He didn't specify how many Steel finish were left. But if you want one you should get on it soon!!
And I'll tell you what ... I know this is going to be a strange thing to take away from a new RDA ... But this Tip is one of the best mouth feel tips I've ever used!! That would be the wide boar tip.

2nd attempt at .3 razorbacks. This time as a 6 ply .4/26g alien tsuka. Went well until wrapping into a coil... these bad boys want to bind up BAD wile wrapping Got the razorbacking down. And the stretch was pretty easy to figure out. But wrapping them up ... I had enough stick for two coils. The first one almost twisted a full 90 degrees. This is the better of the two. I may have to put these off until I get something to ground them into (aka a vise or something).

Man I know those days. Step away and come back tomorrow. Don't dig a deeper hole!!
That's what I'm doing...hole's deep enough already lol

First indented alien. 2x24, 36g. I really wanna inlay it but I should see how it vapes first.
The vape on those is phenomenal!! I'm glad I decided to forgo the inlay till next time.First indented alien. 2x24, 36g. I really wanna inlay it but I should see how it vapes first.
You’re right, these are an awesome vape!
I’m thinking it’s (indented alien) great because:
It has a lot of surface area without having a lot of core mass. It also has single wire alien wrap which brings the wraps resistance up, which means it doesn’t heat up as fast so it can take heat away from the cores.
I think staggered fusing heats up faster because it’s essentially 3+ wraps running parallel, meaning they draw more current and don’t get a chance to draw as much heat from the cores.
I think Mohawks and helixes and such spit a lot because of the size of the gaps in the fuse wire. They flash boils puddles of juice.
The indented coil, to me, is a cool approach to these little characteristics. High resistance wrap over small core mass without gapped fusing.
All pseudoscience and my opinion hehe

Thanks brother! Good to be back!Sometimes that's all you need

Very good points! I'm formulating a plan to use even less fuse wire
IDK, Corrugated builds suck (IMO) for that very reason. The thing is outerwrap only makes a difference if it increases the Coil ID, the wrap itself would be in the 15 to 30 Ohm range and electricity will always take the path of least resistance, this is why when the outerwrap is used it creates a hot spot as the amount of resistance within the outerwrap is to high it lights up instantly.
What you guys should try is using .8 Ribbon or larger and laying it flat in the center under or over the fuse where the indent is to ensure the the air is still heated between the cores.
Just wanted to give some thoughts.
Will have to try! I'm always on the hunt for a new vape! The thing for me is I like a cooler (maybe 'warm' to most people?!?) vape that also kicks me in the face (~1 sec or less draws). And I've found that airy builds at low ohms and high wattage make me happy at the moment. But again, I'm always down to try something new. It's one of the reasons I got into building. Chasing that mythical "perfect" vape.
See I was wondering about that. Since resistance is so much higher in the wrap than the cores, would less energy go through it? Like my mod might say 120 watts, but it’s delivering a certain amount of volts to the atomizer, so maybe the cores are say 120 watts but the wrap receives like 1 watt + heat from cores?
I figured corrugated coils kinda sucked because they don’t have enough wrapwire to wick and sink the cores. Just feels like hot bare wire plus splashing puddles.
Messy desk been grinding some coils and ways to make them as easy as possible. Setup for 4+ core aliens just good old paper clips

Not exactly the wire I wanted to be messing with ...
Hermetic RDA with Interlocking Enigma
6ply .3R + .3 Square + 28g Core, Wrapped in 2 x 40g N90
Did you vape that rda? How’s the airflow if so?
My tiniest work yet, gonna be continuing in the same vain I think. Gonna try 34g next. Try and find the perfect MTL setup. 4*32g ni80 /40g ss316l. Ohms at .47. Think I've wicked too tightly though cause I'm getting that taste of dried out cotton. Not burnt, but getting there. Oh well.

very nice. so far my favorite mtl build is plain 32/42 n80 aliens in a kayfun prime. ill have to give 4 cores a try next time...My tiniest work yet, gonna be continuing in the same vain I think.

What gauge is that? I think I have some 430 around here somewhere (unless I PIF'd it). It was like a 3lb. spool.
I think you PIFd it - I had asked about separating it out - this is 28g, and I have 29g coming from CrazyWireCo
That's kinda hard to build, that tiny thing - make sure you keep the coil low and the diameter under 2mm or it will melt the drip tip
- and dont change the drip tip, standard ones Will touch the coil, yuck

Oops - sorry about that. But I had other 430 - it was on a spool and weighed like 3lbs. or so.

Yeah...that's a lot of wire to heat up friend!Hey guys I’ve been browsing a few threads on here for awhile, this one especially. Figured I would come out the woodworks and post. Didn’t build this it’s pre bought helix staple 4 ply ribbon 28g twist .15 for the pair...not particularly excited about their performance, slow ramp up and not getting a whole lot of flavor.

What's the process for making these? Seems like something worth some testing.First indented alien. 2x24, 36g. I really wanna inlay it but I should see how it vapes first.
I made a 4 core alien and pulled the middle two cores out, than ran over the gap with a plastic pizza cutter. Others have been doing ribbon cores and pulling them out but I hate wasting ribbon lol. Not sure what others are doing to indent. They aren’t a bad vape and they look pretty cool!

A little something I put together last night. I've been wanting to do an "uneven" ssfc like this for a while. I actually planned on making 2 coils and making one of them into something else. But I broke my 42 while fusing ... so I only had enough for 1 coil. And there was 1 nasty spot over the course of 2 stags. No clue how I didn't see it while fusing to fix. Oh well shit happens.
Force Fused SSFC - 10 ply .3 KA1, 26g Ni80 frame, 36g Ni80 stag, 42g Ni80 fuse, 3.5mm ID, .17 ohm single coil in the KTX, vaping it on My NC2 in parallel. So far the best parallel build I've found.

Awesome! I'm gonna build later today, I think I'm gonna try some groove or force fusing like this, see if I can get some yummy ssfc without so much misery lol
Yah This was basically a groove fuse where I loosened the shit out of the claps before fusing so it would actually slide in instead of stayibng up on the groove
Did I miss something?? Why the humph face? Oh and your challenge link is AMAZING!!!
