Thanks! Right now I only have 32,26,24,and 22g Kanthal, but a few quick clicks and I can always order more wire
. Ive been trying to pull the trigger on ordering stainless steel, but im about to order more nichrome so i might as well get a few small spools of different gauge stainless steel.
I can kinda make my own fused claptons (emphasis on the kinda), but I pretty much only do simple, parallels, and twisted builds. Like i had 22g paralleled with 24g kanthal coil that ohms out at .12 on my Yeti but it isn't performing as nicely as my simple 22g kanthal coil that was ohming out at .18 that had been on my goon. I was thinking it was just the attys i had them sitting on, but i rebuilt both so that its reversed now and that parallel is just trash with the amount of wraps i have. So it popped up in my head to ask around and see what i can dig up and save myself a little frustration and that's what prompted to me put up this thread lol.
Ive thought about buying ribbon wire and try my hand at doing a framed staple coil or twisting it with round wire (forgot what that was called). But i went through like 100' of 36g nichrome making fused claptons and only produced a small amount of wire that was nicely claptoned and that's kinda pushed me away from making claptons and such.
