As a relative newbie to coil making and REO's I would agree that 28g is the way to start... and I would say 9-10 wraps giving you around 1,3Ω is were my happy place is and where I think you should aim for to start.

Yip, 28 g is a great gauge to start off with. I shall post some coiling vids in the Reo Basics thread (original post) for you to watch. @Alex you also posted a good vid on Reo coiling, please post me that post link if you can find it.
Thanks for the advice rob.
I should go get some kanthal in the meantime and start wrapping as practice
Soooooo, which kind soul is gonna have a vape session with me at Vape King when the reo arrives and show me the ropes with the reo?

Thank you, fellow Reonaut.
Hi @Andre, I've been trying to find the one in question, but not sure which one it was. My youtube history is miles long
was it this one?
Thanks for the vids
Watching and paying close attention!

That is the one, thanks a lot.
Has anybody ever heard of or used a "Greigsters Coil Buddy"? Am really worrying about my ability to build a coil. In fiddling with rebuilding Evod coils I can just tell that I am not a natural... @Rob Fisher I hope you are a patient man!
This tool looks like it could at the very least hold everything in place and shouldn't be too difficult to make.

@Mornat see this thread for something similar... http://www.ecigssa.co.za/threads/kk-vapetek-coil-jig.3324/
But honestly making a micro coil is really simply and easy... I'm not a McGyver type at all and even I can do it... so will you after one short lesson!

Thanks Rob - I certainly hope I live up to your expectation!! You will be within your full rights to fall on the floor laughing if not.
I promise you will be fine! It's really a breeze!
I use one similar to the one @Rob Fisher posted the link to (http://www.ecigssa.co.za/threads/kk-vapetek-coil-jig.3324/). Nice to have, but you can easily go without. Building for the Reo is far, far easier than rebuilding an Evod.
Im also 2mm 26g 8 wraps. But I use 2 strands of 2mm silica

I got a coil jig from @Zeki Hilmi , its about 200 bucks and works the same as the ones in the vids posted
1.4mm coil, at .7ohms with rayon wick is utterly fantastic. I can't believe how well this rayon works. No dry hits. Wick still looks as good as new after 3 days. I only changed it for a new one out of curiosity.
