i never use this much cotton....should i? i like more room for air to move around....
I don't use a ton of cotton either for the same reason. Just enough through the coil and tails tucked underneath

I just made an Inception coil! I have not put it on my mod to check the ohm yet, I'm going to wait until tonight to check it out. I used 28g wire and the internal coil is 6 wraps and the outside coil is 5 wraps. I used an old RC antenna for the coils since you have to put one inside a tube to wrap the outer coil. It was not as hard as I thought it would be and these old eyes of mine did just fine!

If I can get a good picture of the actual coil I made I'll throw it up here as well.

Didn't notice I needed to brush the coil until I posted..lol.:) doh!
Edit-30 Watts... camera and fire button pressed at same time..camera lags..but it's self-aware..cuz when I try to compensate for it, and it takes picture immediately.

This didn't work... needed to add more surface area to wick/work properly...Looks pretty neat for just a simple build... on the best tank ever made..it's about to meet the drill.

Never used nichrome, is it softer than kanthal? I used kirf 20g, its strong like a paperclip, the 24g kanthal is alot easier to work with, however still hard to work with when wrapping by hand. Id like to find some really soft wire so making custom wires were much less painful to do.

A little softer but the benifit is less ohms/inch

Ok not sure if you can see, but i heated and flattened with a hammer, then did 3 wraps, getting it to fit into deck was a pain, I just hope itll actually fire..
