when you have a bunch of kanthal and some time on your hands, the twistyness happens
Some fun with kanthal

Wow what you gonna do with that BA Baracus necklace
Beard hairs but they all look the same. That one cable came out way too thick even for the plume veils post holes. Will just keep it for maybe one day. Need to get cracking on some other coils though
must say twisting kanthal is just a fun activity to do for me. the more different gauges of wire you have the more fun you can have. need to get me some more ribbon kanthal soon 
the two twisted coils on the far left are exactly the same, just different gauges of wire. 26g and 32g respectively. 3 strands of double twisted wire twisted together. so glad one of the videos ive watched before had this tip where you put a single strand of kanthal in the drill, hold onto the one end with pliers and spin the kinks out of the wire and make it nice and straight. must also say clapton coil making is a pain, and can be a heck of a pain if you forget the outer wrap wire end has a little l hook at the end and you wind it into your finger fishing style. not cool. and winding the stuff is a bugger, but i guess it will make pretty looking coils
