Im getting mixed feelings about everything...Im not sure if its good or bad but sure is confusing since it wasnt what I was looking for...I made posts like that when I needed diapers for the kids or needed to pay a bill but other then that I wasnt looking to make anything of a store out of myself, rather have others try something they wouldnt ever try due to their income or because they felt its not necessary...maybe its because I really tired and Im not thinking clearly...Im going to get some sleep though..thanks for cluing me in Chef.
Well, what else is entailed to being an Unlisted Vendor other than having that badge under your name?
Btw, that 50 gauge staple is insane. I cant imagine doing 50 gauge wrapped anything ever. I get pissed enough using 40 gauge.

I DONT TRUST THE GOVERNMENT not like crazy conspiracy theories I just don't think they should make it harder for people to vape than they do for smoking. Vaping saved my life and not for nothing it saves my sanity I build and mix as my "happy" time when my kids know better than

Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine!!! Really is a great Atty and under rated as far as I'm concerned. Loved my Griffin but since the Limitless came along the Griffin has been left alone, sad and lonely.

Mods are becoming triple 18650's or 26650's that's what I'm thinking is behind it that and they wouldn't have much room for juice in 22mmI'd love a 22mm Limitless

I dont know but I got a infraction for posting threads about new gear coming out like Ive always done and I was told that was the reason, becuase Im a unlisted vendor which I didnt know until then I even had that badge and then started asking questions...I guess its not a big deal but I wish I was confronted with more information and a bit more directly...
My phone wont attach to my computer since the USB port on the phone is getting old and its a Samsung which is a known issue...soo I will just be posting like I have recently until further notice...
Stating off like this...Again the 50g Framed Staple...I cant get over this build and its one of a handful from my IG that Ive actually vaped...

In the Vape game, bigger is (almost) always better in the companies eyes. Have you seen the Scorpion rdta... it looks completely stupid on just about every mod out there.

I have a question and I've only guessed at answers when you're using multiple core wires how do you know what the ohms will be I jumped in head first into building so I missed the whole lesson on the ohms laws etc

Just wow Ray!
I'm feeling my feet atm after 9months without building anything fancy, hence the framed staple i just made lol
So far it's helped me also the 4 wraps rule that I made has been ok so farCrossing your fingers also helps dont it!

Yeah, I hear you, but I want a 22mm Limitless! well with a different top
. I got a Haze, Avocado, and Theorem, I like the top coil things, and when I saw the Theorem I was just waiting for a nice dual coil with the same type of wick slots...but it's only in 24mm
You can set it up in the Wire Wizard on steam-engine, or you can just set it as Parallel for the coil building area and adjust the ID for the wrap. At this point though for anything that I've done I can guestimate as well if not better than Steam-Engine for my builds, I still hop back to it for new things though.

You can also use the Wire Wizard at the Steam Engine website. You can configure almost any type of coil there.

Great minds think alike!
Awesome that helps a ton because I haven't really moved onto more than 2 core wires yet

Its absolutely splendiferous. Im gonna try some 33/40 aliens later once my eyesight clears up from the flash burn i got at work. I could barely see these as i wrapped them, i only knew it was good because the wrap stayed flat

Something I just threw together.
Friend at work vapeing to get off the cigarettes.
Telling me he's cleaning his Clapton's every 3 days.
Been using the same coils for almost 4 weeks.
He doesn't want to build or he is scared idk
I'm like here freebie, won't be as good but for the way u vape you should be ok for 6days before cleaning. Ain't no one got time for that.

so i have been too busy to even properly lurk for a week or so. just getting caught up and i see a lot of new people building. welcome 
its good to see more people in here. i wish i had time to multi-quote all the builds i missed this week and say 'nice work' to each person, but this will have to do. looking forward to seeing your next builds everyone.
i ordered wire and some hardware a while ago and its starting to come in. my wire arrived friday and today is the first day i can do a build. i also got a fiskars hobby drill. i think it was ohmboy josh on youtube who recommended it for doing stagger fused. as a test today i clamped it into my little vise and made a set of 28g aliens with it. it took a while to wrap the clapton this way, but doing the aliens wrap was pretty fast. i like that you can stop wrapping immediately, go back half a wrap, or whatever. 50x more control over whats going on in exchange for 50x less speed. also nice for night builds. i live in a condo with rich old people for neighbors on all sides who hate the sound of power tools at any time of the day, but i usually find my build time is after dark so this silent little drill is a win just for that.
have a good day builders, may your hands be steady, and your eyes clear

Nothin' too wild tonight. I've had this Black TMsquared deck for about a week, i decided just to use it for photos since its nicer than my other one. You can almost see the reflection of the coils in the posts
Anyways, Dual~core Interlocking Aliens paralleled w/ 28g. All Atomizerwick N80, clocked in at .3Ω for the single coil.

24/31g 316L SS claptons in the limitless they're damn good so I can't wait to try the smaller notch coils

I have a Limitless on the way, someone was having problems with it wicking and he was suggested to not completely fill the wick holes, is this the case or do they wick just fine without a gap?
Last night I fell asleep with it so it was on its side last night and I have white sheets I wicked just like my theorem and have had no issues.

finally got to go pick up my hardware delivery. theres still a few shipments on the way, but the highlights of this package were the boreas and the rafale x. i just slipped a pair of fused claptons in the boreas before i left to kinda compare it to the build i have in the griffin 25 for a while (so far so good). i got home about midnight and went to work on the rafale x.
framed staples: 8x .4mm kanthal ribbon with 26g kanthal frames and 38g n80 wrap. 5 3mm wraps on the rafale x comes to ~.4 ohms
i learned a little trick thats probably common knowledge to anyone who can get perfect wraps all the time, but is new to me. i usually watch the wraps a little behind where they are hitting the core(s) and try to adjust my spool angle so they look clean. this leads to too much adjusting the spool angle and making mistakes (in my experience at least). this time i just watched the wire coming off the spool in relation to the cores and tried to keep a right angle with a few degrees of lag (so the wrap wire is hitting the cores a tiny bit ahead of the spool) and i got some of my most consistent/clean/stress free wraps ever.
regarding the rafale x. i have seen some people mention punching the spiral thing out of the drip tip. whats the benefit of taking it out?

Better airflow thru the tip. Not much of a difference, I punched one out (there is a small lip at the top so drive it towards the bottom) and neglected to do the other and I can't really tell much of an advantage either way.
