Pull the wire through Toothless Pliers
Yea any Kennedy 22 tip will fit on the goon which is kinda nice if you don't like the tip for whatever reason.
I know but this tip is the exact same as the Black Goon Tip which you cant buy or get unless you buy a black goon...This is why I posted this, I didnt think that they made Kennedy tips that big but they do!
With 40g/44g for the Stagger and Fuse its pretty damn difficult getting a perfect stagger
Just a single coil takes almost a hour to fuse just because how much filling is needed.
Dont worry it gets better....this build I wasnt even trying to stagger...I claptoned the 26g like normal then did the decore trick that you use for aliens but I didnt remove the core. I stretched the clapton a bit and then pinched it with pliers at the ends to keep it where I wanted it. Then I bent the length in half, it still has play so it can be moved around or adjusted while fusing....I didnt do the Tamer Method or Loop on this one, maybe thats why it wasnt completely perfect but 40g is hard to space while ensuring its the proper space the while length...I was just tryin to feel better about myself and my own fucked up staggers
lol
You used this stagger method for your SSCFC you just posted? I've always wondered if that would work.
I used the Method I wrote for this last CSSFC, The others were made with the Tamer Method.
Dont use a Paperclip, If you have some Ribbon wire wrap a few loops around the cores and lightly pinch it with nylon pliers...so far this is the best tip that Ive triedDecided to try aliens out again now that I have a bunch of new stuff for my build setup. The one or two times I tried these before was nowhere near this, so even though they couldn't be wrapped and installed I'm very happy with the results. This was more for practice and to see if I could get it.
This alien would have been good, but my cores got twisted somehow. I had them taped, attached to the swivel and was using a small paperclip to hold them parallel, but still went wacky. Will be trying again tonight.
This was a Mohawk alien attempt.. and about the only good section lol. I think after a few more tries I'll have my technique and the feel for leading the alien wire.

yeah the pinching of the ribbon that you are using to hold your cores straight is an important step that i missed on my first couple tries. i dont have nylon pliers so i just wrap mine in duct tape and go easy. the pinch really sets them in place though. my other problem was that starting and stopping the drill is a source of little mistakes and i inherently wanted to avoid that, so i was trying to work in too large of an area. it really is much better only working on an inch or so at a time (an inch between the stuff you just wrapped and the ribbon thats holding your cores straight). also, dont forget to lightly pinch the stuff you just wrapped every time you slide your ribbon out of the way. pinch the ribbon again too every time you move it.
When I tested it was with 26 / 34 and worked fine but I don't do aliens all the time like some people do. I have nothing between 34 and 40 now and I can't alien 40 anyway it's too thin for me to hold lightly....or see properly. I did one with the last of the 36 I had on 28 cores and that worked but it was only enough to make one coil.i wondered about that too. so far i have made 26/32, 26/36 and 28/38 aliens and never had a problem as long as my wraps started on the same size core that they will finish on. i wonder if you can do something cool by using different gauges for your wrapping cores and your final cores (like a way to always get a perfectly consistent prometheus/mohawk??).
There a bit more too it then that, you could do that but you wouldnt get that edge.
Okay I'm gonna need some tips on how this build was achieved lol. Also your corrugated prometheus I saw before this one.. man that's possibly one of the most badass coils I've seen so far.
Just above the post Im quoting is how I did that Metal Snake Build
yeah thats what i figured. there are reasons for some techniques though. another core in that plain clapton will really take it up a notch, or alien wraps compared to normal for wicking...
I've been enjoying the groove-fused claptons a lot, but you can never go wrong with a nice fresh set of aliens. Most of these coils are well worth the effort, they all intensify the flavor in different ways. In my experience very few coils were not worth the troubleSo to you crazy coil artists... what's your favorite vape? Pretty is awesome, but functional is better
Alien Framed Staple or Framed Staple....you cannot go wrong with either one..So to you crazy coil artists... what's your favorite vape? Pretty is awesome, but functional is better
I hear that, but everyone's got to have a favorite, and some of these, maybe I'm just not getting it, but functionally they seem like they'd be a step backwards compared to others. Like the corrugated stuff looks awesome, but is it really better than a simpler fraple?
your advice is appreciated more than you can imagine
