Never tried them for vaping wire but they do an awesome job with bailing/mechanics wire

I recently purchased some SS 420 wire so I could build some TC coils. Being new to this I had no idea what I was buying, all I have bought before was fused Clapton wire. To the internet I went! I tried using a drill to twist some wire, total disaster! I'm sure if I tried again I could do it but it got me thinking. Back in the day when I was racing Motorcycles (Desert) I used to safety were my spokes and had a really cool set of wire twisting plyers... I went to my tool box and there they were! The coil pictured is 3 strands of wire twisted and wrapped 8/7 at 3.5 ID dual coils at 1.7 OHM.

Could this be it? The chosen one? The traveler? The daily companion?

Just did a fused 2x26 with 32 wrap in SS. This time I tightened down the tensioning nut to the point that I feared for the 32. Really nice Clapton! Outer layer did not slip one bit even when I used a pliers to help tighten the coil on the rod. Put it in the Goon and it is doing it's job well. I love the life of a Mad Scientist.
