This isn't anything fancy...but it's my first build and I wanted to share.

Standard dual coil build. 26ga Kanthal. I was aiming for .5 ohm, it clocked in at .48 on the ohm meter.

It fired exactly as I hoped it would...nice and even from the inside out.

And it definitely cranks out the vapor...

I do the same thing shin does. Five minutes at the most and it's good to go...Single, duel or quad...

Now that I found a new way of wicking, it might be ten minutes max...

I can deal with that... ;)

Lately I've found my wicking takes much more time than wrapping, and installing coils. At times it gets to the point where I find myself nipping single strands of wick. Talk about overkill and a headache. :wallbash: But no dry hits is definitely a pay off.

This is a Fuzed Clapton Build, I used two 26 gauge kanthal wires and wrapped them with a 30 gauge kanthal wire. By wrapping them super tight I Fuzed the 2 26 gauge wires together creating a larger wire with less resistance. This build fires at .13 ohms and chucks clouds and flavor.

All of this was done on a Swirlfish rebuildable deck.

Question about that last coil..  if you moved the positive wires tot he opposit holes couldnt you center the coils a bit more in the deck for better airflow across the coils?

 

That depends on your RDA.  I build on a TOBH and the placement of the airholes when wide open are not centered, so you have to build towards the side.  It all depends on your setup.  IMO you are correct that you want the coil in the path of the airflow coming in.

I've been doing a lot of coil builds lately, figured I'd share this one.

Dual Staggered Fused Clapton .2 ohm Build. 28g 317L core, wrapped with 32g kanthal, fused with 28g kanthal, wrapped on a 2mm screwdriver, built on 28mm Tobh Atty.

 
Another awesome build I did in a Goblin tank. This thing hits like a dripper. It's Dual Claptons .2 ohms, 28g kanthal core wrapped with 32g kanthal with on a 1mm coil jig.

Nice looking builds. I just ordered a bunch of kanthal (26, 28, 30 & 32g). I've been wanting to try a dual Clapton but have been putting it off. Think I just found my motivation.

Only new to dripping this week but here's a few builds I've done

Simple dual

And my latest is the dual nano dragon. Forgot to take a picture before I wicked it but you can see the ends poking out. And in my opinion chucks decent clouds

Nice work for a noob. If you hadn't said I would have thought that you been doing this for a while.

I'm glad your here Chrisfriar. Clean builds are the way to go!!!

But damn, isn't it so very easy???...lol

Maybe it's just that I have a background twisting wire...

Sleeper coil build on darkhorse rda clone.

28g kanthal wrapped 9 times on a 3/32 screwdriver @0.8 ohms. Not the cleanest build in the world but hey it chucks it.

No your right its definitely a lot easier than I was expecting. When watching videos and doing my research on builds I was wondering what I was getting into with all these different terms and gauges of wire but when it came to it I was surprised how simple it actually was.
