....which is now a famous move "doing a Silver"

You guys are champions. What would I do without you?
Thanks for the videos @TylerD and @Matthee. I will review them very carefully since they come from you.
@Tom, you are right about "doing a Silver" - lets see what happens
If you dont hear from me, you know I am on my bed (no need for the couch, since I am at home - public holiday today here in SA)
@Gizmo, thanks for the support!
Here's the thing. I actually have a bit of a dilemma. My wife has gone away for the long weekend with her mother. So I have the perfect opportunity to build coils and vape - in bliss. However, I am WAAAAAYYYYY behind on some important work. I need to put in mega hours. So this weekend can just save me.
This is torture.
So I am going to ration myself - some work and then some vaping as a reward.
So, this is my plan. Its now about 12h00. The Kayfun parts have had their 2nd wash and their vodka bath. I have set them out to dry. I am gonna work like a demon till about 6pm if I can - and then I am going to reward myself with a vaping evening all to myself.
Can't wait...

Dying to hear the feedback? I suspect @Rob Fisher may be in a self induced menthol nic coma by now?
Read further back in the thread Markus.
Will redo the coil and wick later and have another go.

Good luck!
Right
I'm back at the vaping station. Work for the day has been done. A bit later than my original 6pm target.
Kayfun parts have dried. Vodka evaporated.
Thanks @Cape vaping supplies for the suggestion and pic. I will see what I come up with.
I am sooooo excited.......

I just need to prepare something else to vape while I am working on the Kayfun.... my tanks are all empty.
Standby...
My biggest issue too @Silver, but I try and work fast.
Hope you get it dialled in. Sounds like the Kayfun can be tricky?
It can be very tricky at first, but you learn fast, and I think compared to building a Genesis or a hybrid style atomiser it is much simpler.
Hardest part for me is getting the screws to hold the legs of the coil firmly. If you over tighten the screws it can push the legs out, and if you don't tighten enough when you heat and pinch the coil it can go all over the place.

Parts are clean
Just a question, is there supposed to be a seal just above the threads at the base of the chimney?
(See red arrow in picture below)
There wasn't one in the package, neither does there seem to be one mentioned in the instruction manual?

Nope, no seal there on the KF 3.1 @Silver . Your parts all look clean and ready for assembly.
Often wondered why there is no seal there myself, since the tank works on a vacuum feeding system
Take your time, and watch RipTrippers if things get really hard.
Watching @TylerD at the vape meet gave me 80% of it, and watching Rip was the final technique polish I needed after I had tried a few myself

Sh1t, @devdev, I see what you saying about the screws not holding the tails.
I have been trying for about 30 mins.
Can't get them to hold
These screws are so damn tiny - I mean really, are these guys for real?
They are also not very strong - they wobble a bit and don't grip the damn coil.
I am going to take a break for a few minutes, wipe the sweat off my forehead. Have a vape of something else - and try again soon...
Really, really frustrated.

Also, one of the poles (don't know if its pos or neg) - the bigger one - started swivelling around.
Is that normal?
Starting to have serious doubts about this device.
Sorry guys for all those that love the Kayfun

Yip, buggered up one of those screws the other day. The spare screw was actually better.
Try putting 2 tiny washers through each screw, then place your wire between the 2 washers then tighten, the washers would act like a clamp.
P.S. Another forum member (cant remember who) came up with that idea, just thought it might be of use here as well.
That post block is fastened by the air hole screw. Either broken or just loose.Also, one of the poles (don't know if its pos or neg) - the bigger one - started swivelling around.

Thanks @BhavZ
That is a really good suggestion. I do recall that mentioned before, but didnt think of that now. Thanks for sharing that with a man in desperate need
Only problem is I don't have any such tiny washers available now.
I swear if the shops were open now, I would get in my car and drive for 30 mins to get it!
LOL
@Matthee, thanks - I will see if the spare screw is any better. Appreciate that advice.
