If you use 2 x 30g/38g and stage it with 22g it lines up perfectly even...Like the one below, its appealing and very functional.

28/36/38 Dual core stitched aliens w/ 26KA1 in parallel. This build certainly renewed my hatred for 36g Aliens. That being said, i wanted to build something in my original dotmod to run on a single 18650 mech, so i gave these a whirl. They came in at .15Ω. They perform quite well, almost identically to staggered fused claptons. For some reason 36g just likes to fight me on every level. As soon as i go up to 38 the aliens just build themselves for me, so i had a heck of a time with these. This was only my second time trying the stitched aliens, and my first try with the dual core variation, not sure if i'll attempt this exact build again, perhaps as a series build at some point. Great vape though. Cheers!

I needed to hit a certain resistance level and this was the best fit.

How hard is cattrack wire to make? I haven't seen anything about it other then what's been posted here but I haven't looked either lol
sent from a dumb operated smartphone
Its a fused clapton, thats hammered and then scrubbed clean and rinsed. It does not sound like alot of work but it is....
How my routine goes for them.
I crank out a 2ft length of 2x22/30g-32g Fused Clapton. I grab my Hammer and My Wrench I flatten wire with and Hammer every peice of the wire length both sides and check over the wire to make sure its all hammered and flattened evenly. I give it a rinse and then I start the polishing treatment with 2000 grit and then 3000 grit. After the polishing is done I use a toothbrush to scrub them with Dawn soap and rinse them again. Then I wrap a coil or 2....

I prefer to make the multi-strand Caterpillar tracks like in the TM video above. The juice flow is much better

It's worth it, trust me. There's a huge difference in both flavor and vapor production than the FC version. Plus, the tracks are much more even, and you can make them as wide as you want.
I didnt have enough thinner wire for multicore....I only have about a 1ft left of 22K and gauges higher then 36g.....Monday Ill have all the wires Im missing in. I wanted to try a 5-8 Core with 32 and 24 for the outer wrap....I want to not be able to see the inner cores and have the outer wire be more flattened across. Like TM's in this pic:

Practice, attention to detail, and persistence.
only 45 mins if you watch at 2X speed! sounds silly but really you get used to it quick and saves a ton of time (it's how I watch any guide, I'll slow down if it's an issue for a certain part then speed up again).Cat Track and then Polishing Tuts, thanks @KapitalJ
Its about 1.5 hours worth of work for 2 coils...and thats if you dont smash your fingers to the point they dont function
Thats just the time watching the video, I meant actually building the coils and polishing them takes 1.5 hours for 2 coils...you only get to go as fast as you can without messing up..

This pic is nowhere near as nice as the ones made by Ken, by they're still a pretty good vape. I have to make some framed Caterpillar track wire for a customer (he wants to make his own coils) later on today. It's gonna be a whopper at 30x34K cores, 2x22K frames and 34K binding. About 18 inches long.

Ahh, my bad. Misread that. Either way, it's a nice way to watch guides.

It looks fucking sick man!
Made a decent build for my new atty.
26/30 fused clapton wraped in 28.
Defintly a high powered build. I originally made the same build in n90 fogwire core 32 wrap. But its resistance was .03...... aparently when they say low resistance they mean it. Then i went to recreate it all in kanthal but ran out of 32 halfway down the wire so i had to switch to 30. I need more wire.....

The issue was that i only got enough to cover the penny lol
Haha, thanks man!Looks like it could be used to strap down bridges
Ah. But that's a heluva start! Havent been feeling the build bug lately just building basic claptons to send out to friends (very relaxing) might add this to the try pile

Got some three core aliens built. Decided, "let's put them in the velocity vertically"
They didn't work. I'd put that into more words but the adult beverages are on board...
settled for FCs. Oh well.

I want to see some 54g Alien Framed Staples...That person I would bow to.
Oh, sure, let me get right on it for ya Ray!
I wish I could build even a FC with 50!!!! You could do it Ray! 54g isn't anything to you!Matt
Ive done it a couple times and its such a pain in the ass I really havent even bothered with it since..I play alot with the higher 40's like 46/48 but 50/52/54 Isnt really all that jazz like I once thought of about it...Wrapping the FC's with it was more difficult then any other Fused and some Staple builds Ive done but I couldnt imagine the pain in the ass it would be to decore and stretch it without breaking it and then wrap some aliens with it...FUCK THAT SHIT!Oh, sure, let me get right on it for ya Ray!

I did a Framed Fused Claptn with 54g though..
Core FC: 2x26K/54N60, Framed in 22K, Wrapped in 46N60
Can you even pick out the details in the Core Fused Clapton Outer Wrap??
My god it looks almost solid.... God damn!!!!
Matt
Matt
Well thats how my shoulder, arms and back felt after I finally got about a foot of wire made for that core fused clapton...you think 38g-44g takes a long time to fused with? Multiply that by exponential amounts of time....per inch!
I can imagine. It takes me a bit longer with 38...

Hey Ray...when using 3 cores for aliens how do you keep the alien wrap from creating that sort of "triangle" wrap around the cores?
