Just thought I'd share a little something that made me laugh. Been about 2 years since I wrapped a coil. Twisted one up last night well tried to. Standard 9 wrap 28g kanthal got done it was bad don't know what happened to me. Show the wife how bad I suck at it now to try and get some positive reinforcement..... She dead ass says "damn babe you need to step up your game that shit needs braces".... So I'll be getting in some practice

28g or higher is a proper bitch to work with freehand. lol. Plus those thin wire coils are fairly fragile to begin with. Keep at it and Git er dun.

Sorry for the delay... I used a precision screwdriver.... The standard metal king. Just wrapping a standard micro coil one wire not spaced just like i always used to held taunt ensuring each wrap snug with the one prior put a nice lil bend on the legs then let off and all hell breaks loose... Chop that up to not setting the bends... Next one the same... Used to be able to make 4 burn it wick it and be ready in 15 min. Same wire as I used to always use... Idk im just gonna grab some 26.

Maybe it’s a tension thing as you wind?

Coil master V4 tool is very good makes decent wrap every time certainly for single wire anyway

Might try heating the wire with a lighter or propane torch to take some spring out of it.
