congrats
Man y’all are on fire! I got take a couple pics of SOMETHING tonight lol
@Pegleg Meg have you seen the hedgehogs with inlays? I’ve seen a few on Instagram, they run a tiny coil through the gap in the hedgehog bumps
Yah, I don't remember who I saw do it first. I wanna say it was wirejunkiealexfen. Called it his shredder build. But it's started to become popular. It's so cool! I haven't even tried a hedgehod myself lol.
Dual SSFC is pretty difficult to get much above .17 without going high gauge frames (30+) and stuffing a fk ton of wraps. A 28/38/5 ply .3/3mm ID/7 Wraps/dual runs ~.17 (pre-fire). This set-up BARELY fits in a 24mm, postless, atty. Now, grant it, I use Ni80 for frames. So you can bring it up a bit more with Ka frames. But the ramp time is going to be pretty long if you do that. I found that even with the Nichrome frames, the coils start to dry out before I get a good hit. So, depending on how high you want your ohms ...
What gauge ribbon do you have? Got 0.3? I will poke at it, too, I love using using vapetool lol
P.S. have you noticed the big air on the KTX? You might wanna go for a single coil?
A single coil 6x 0.4(k) + 26g n80 frames, 5 wraps and 3.5mm id would be good in the ktx (imo) about 0.19 ohms
I have all that stuff too. Gotta get a larger coiling tool. 3mm is largest I have that I know the size. I could take a stab at it with a drill bit but I don't like winging it.

It's definitely airy. I've got two of your aliens in it now. I might have to try with the single coil option.

I've actually got a nice framed staple I could use. Well fralien now that I look at it. Have to see what this ohms out to. All n80 .5 ribbon I believe.

3mm is my favorite size for this kinda atty, anyway - yeah my coils are def more for air that can close down more than that for mucho flavor, I don't push 100+ watts, 60-70 is my happy place
Bonus of single coil in this (or KTX) is it's almost an RDTA - holds a loooot of juice
0.15 ohms, 66 watts
Well you were right. This is the bees knees. A little more rowdy than I like but just take one or two less hits. Lol getting plenty of nic with this build. .16 fralien. Oh and to clarify this is not my build. I've yet to get staples right let alone alien's. Thanks to @VAPEROXX for the coil.

Is that a single stick for the coils? Didn’t they call that a sleeper? Old schoooool
Not happy with this i tried many times with 36g wrap and looked better and tighter with stitching just kept collapsing my cores.. specs on this 16*.3 28g frames and 38g without stitching and now i regret i did not stitch

That looks great man! We are always our own worst critics. And don't feel bad about the stitch. The only thing I can stitch without collapse is a mohawk ... and only if it's a core set that is supposed to be collapsed already. Oh and I did successfully stitch one day while playing around with tiny core sets and massively oversized decores. I have tried 100 different ways ... at least a few times a week for a few months ... with suggestions from some amazing builders. Eventually I just gave in and decided to put it on the backburner for an undetermined amount of time.Not happy with this i tried many times with 36g wrap and looked better and tighter with stitching just kept collapsing my cores.. specs on this 16*.3 28g frames and 38g without stitching and now i regret i did not stitch

Yeah i will try it again in future i need to feed my addicition to perfect everything
While i know i can't perfect everything but i need to try that anyway it's in my nature @raymo2u by the way do you have some pics of your hedgehog variations? I need some inspiration and clue how perfect hedgehog looks like from the hands of master.

I'm still dreaming about making clean ones like thisThe stitch seems to help keep the wraps lined up, not sure about why your cores collapse with a stitch
Thinking about just my bad core stability on prep work once again...

And i used 36g i think it's harder because it's more stiffer and collapses cores easier. Thats why my 38g didn't
Wow niiice!
Thanks, I think I got it...the ribbon does try to slide around and fill in the bumps, but I kept the slider close
I'm gonna photo stack this one when I get time
ooooOOOooooOO puuurdy!!!
Thought Id share a Miles stone here...
Ive put 50g Aliens under my belt and now Ive Made a few different staggered 50g builds the last few days. Staggertons and a SSFC, my camera battery died after the first stack so Ill have more shots soon but here are the SSFC wire shots.
