The biggest concept here is only Claptoning at most an inch if your just getting started with 3+ cores. Also, prep. If you do shitty prep, coupled with too much tension your build is doomed before you start.
Also, there are tons of threads in the coil building section. Id say once every few weeks someone is asking how to make tri-core and more-core Claptons and aliens.
From experience, I will say that making more-core aliens is "easier" if you have your alien technique down because that wire holds itself better, and you're limited on the amount of tension you can use. To much and your alien wrap is starting to space and look shitty.
I learned 2 core aliens, then aliens, then more-core Claptons and then more-core aliens.
This is about as thorough as I can be without telling you that the information your wanting has been posted many times in the build thread.
Round wire is hard to Clapton passed two cores. It can can be done, but you need to practice perfect preparation.
!!!!!!!!!LEARN PERFECT PREP!!!!!!!
