Wire Porn thread

[CrazyChef]

Dang, first time! Have an order for a couple pairs of 2 core stitched aliens. Usually, out of about 10 inches, I can find 2 lengths that are good enough to use for coils. There is always a bit of back coiling, or the alien doesn't wrap correctly in a small area, or any other of a dozen different problems. Anyway, today I got a little over a foot of flawless stitched alien wire.

There's obviously some twist to it, but I take care of that as I coil it.

2x28K cores, 36N alien wrap, 40N stitch:

I finally received my Griffin RTA so far it has the biggest deck Ive seen on a RTA to date. Its actually slightly bigger (spread further apart) then my Velocity RDA's posts. It dwarfs the Crius and Aromamizers decks by a long shot, builds I used that almost touched the outer chamber would fit between then posts on the Griffin with room to spare....


I built a 2x22K/42N80 Fused Clapton just to see if I could manage fitting something that is the same size as the real rda. I wrapped the wire on a 3mm bit and made 6 wraps (.13 Ohms). The wire slipped into the post holes easily and with enough room for staging wire if I chose to next time. The coil fit perfectly but the wicking would have been a bit tight if I left them at 6 so I dropped a wrap and wicked the build. I felt I didnt use enough cotton as the cotton seemed very loose on the shelf system for it, I decided to leave it and Im glad I did. The cold weather here thickens liquid and using 80/20 liquid doesnt help but the amount of cotton used seems to be working very well for now.


There was a bit of spitback using the tip they provided but after a few draws it was gone. I have it set on 90w and the cotton is slowly breaking in, it has around the same amount of airflow as the Crius and it definitely is a good thing for building coils like these. The experience f using this tank with this setup is the same of my Twisted Messes RDA with the same build in it, now I dont need to drip every few draws and can enjoy it that much more. I suggest everyone that builds jump on this RDA, Fuck the Crius and Fuck the Aromamizer, I spit on that garbage and Im glad companies are releasing products with the same vision just designed around our needs. I cannot wait to compare it to the VCMT 25mm when it arrives soon!

Heres to show what Im talking about...The build in the Griffin is the Same build in the Twisted Messes Mini except the outer wrap is thinner on the TM Mini, try that in a Crius or Aromamizer

Not very wireporny but I'm impressed with how small the 40g is, I can't even get it with my macro. Just a little 2x26k 40n80 fc out of the two foot I wrapped today

That's true. It's been really interesting to see his progression. I'm the one winding little piddly micro coils. But, they're mine, dammit, and they work!!

I truly remember that. You've come a long way, baby!

Still can't do a staggered fused Clapton to save my life, though. I hate those things. At least I know I'm not missing out on a good flavor build, though.

 

[Huckleberried]

Yeah, don't feel badly. I can't do a staggering thingamuhbob either.

 

[raymo2u]

Ive only got the Staggered perfect for more then enough for a Dual Coil a handful of times and I thought it would vape better then it did...I did think of trying it with much thinner wire but I didnt want to waste a shit ton of wire for little return if it pans out that way..


Has anyone seen that Point Blank Mod? I think it may be my next Mech Purchase and may be one of my last Mechs to buy..
Its a bit pricey but I like the Slide Lock/Unlock Action, Battery Mag and Trigger Setup....P;us its almost all 24K covered Brass and T6 ALuminim.

Same here. All the sfc's ive made were replaced within hours of install. They're pretty to look at when they come out right but i think im gonna use that 33ga as core wire now.I wasted probably 50'+ of 33ga the other day trying one of those facncy schmancy multi strand sfc's, was a no-go from the get-go...

I'm pretty sure he has robot hands or something funny how we can wrap tiny wires around other wires thousands of times but its the 5 wraps around a screwdriver thats just too hard

THAT I can do. I admire all of you guys. Cool stuff.

 

[CrazyChef]

For me, it's the thumb holding the button on the drill. Gets downright painful sometimes. Gotta keep switching positions to keep it from cramping up or just plain muscle tension/fatigue.

On another note...
I finally got around to throwing a build into the Fishbone. 2x28N/40N fused Claptons. Came in at 0.14Ω Great flavor, and cumulus type clouds.

Well with the amount I spend on my DIY, hardware and I'm trying to get a new car.. adding wire expenses is just too much. But screw it. I'm about to order about 1000' or more of various gauges.

Beautiful. I need to get better at doing claptons by hand.. I just wasted a ton of 34g. My core wire kept bending and breaking eventually. Guessing my grip on my outer wire is too tight.. but any less tension and it's springy

I bought 4 of those 38g spools so far and I can say it is very clean wire for being a oddball wire and type. I am grabbing a spool of the 40 and 46 thats available tonight. Its 36g and up that I like to stock up on the 1000ft and 500ft in gauges lower then that. Im so glad I found those spools....I cant imagine how much I would of spent by now with anything else...I can see everyone else here and in the "Post your Builds thread" has benefited from the link from previous posts also
I hope everyone starts using VerdeValleyVapes.com for their liquid also so they can save a buck, stock up on great juice and be able to build more

I know I didnt have an issue getting any gauge in Kanthal D from him before I posted the links and Im damn sure glad that I bought all I could in every gauge before posting it a while back....I buy when its available now even when I dont need it.
