Im pretty new to vaping, about 6 months in. After about a month I bought a kayfun, wire, and cotton. It sat in my truck, as i debated am I going to be able to see good enough to build coils. I boiled my cotton and waited few more days contemplating and letting cotton dry. Guess i was not scared but just not sure enough to do it since i have trouble seeing good. I ordered a mini Kayfun and told myself that will be my first build, thinking thats the smallest deck to put a coil on, if I could do that, then the regular size Kayfun would be a piece of cake. Once I was ready, mounted one of those magnifying glass with built in lite on a spring arm you mount on your desk, had a good coil that came out to 1.4 ohm on that mini deck, it was not hard at all. Now the regular kayfuns are so easy to coil. I just re cotton about once a week and use same coil if it's a good wrapped one.
The one thing that I wasn't expecting, my juices that I made and was using in my ego's with mini protanks, were super strong in my kayfuns, cause that cotton really wicks and that chimney really channels that flavor. I ended up having to redo my recipies a bit.
