Main reason I prefer 0.2 ohm and up... ramp up quick and cool down quick... no throat burn etc... I have yet to still master framed staples. The ribbon always flips on me when making the coil!
Whipped up some (28/38 clapton) claptoned in parallel with 28g. Comes out at 0.2 ohms and is probably my favorite in regards to flavour and ramp up so far.
Well... it seems
Well... it seems by hand im messing the whole thing up... Lol.
I think I didn't Clapton the whole thing tight enough, which have some slack... tomorrow I'll try again...
Try No4... staple staggered fused Clapton.
Went with 28/36 staggered borders, 6 x (0.5x0.1) ribbon, claptoned with 36. All n80.
Build went relatively well. Apart from the spots that I jumped... making the coils was a FAIL. I'm going to still give them a try out and pretend they are spaced...
I did the same with the "sliders" and the coil wrapped relatively well for my level. My problem was when wrapped them around my screw driver. The ribbon part flipped to its side . I'm thinking maybe I didn't wrap them with enough tension.
So try No3... framed staple.
Getting the ribbon and frames to stay in line is POS. I finally got it right.... only to fail at making them into coils.... ribbon twisted to its sides....
I thought about that and placed the middle coil a little closer to the deck and the outside coils a little higher... I'll load pics after some use or as soon as I'm bored and onto the next experiment... lol
Hi guys. New member here. After lots of reading and inspiration, I tried my luck in coil making. First try was a plain Clapton. 26g Ni main wrapped in 36g Ni.
My second try was multi core clapton. 2 x 28g Ni wrapped in 38g Ni.
So far I'm proffering the single core due to ramp up time... and...
