You'll be fine, just pretend you never read this thread it only got complicated because the Coil Master is rubbish out of the box for thin coils, it's fine for > 2 mm.

My opinion of the 3 that i got from ft, absolute pile of crap. I can make a better coil in less time on my coiling buddy.
Just glad they cost next to nothing as they are now binned.

I'm still waiting for mine but I'm feeling a bit downhearted now

[Ripshod]

Mine are still travelling. I'm gutted at reading all this. I was going to give them to my sis but unless I can work out a way to get them to work consistently with 0.25 and 0.3mm kanthal I guess I'll just give her my jig and order another.

Me too, this was supposed to be my saviour for my epic coiling failures - still FT have got those Kanger pre made coils heads at £3 for 20 and the ones that came with the sub tank mini are pretty good so I'll just order some of them instead!

[dreamylittledream]

Well mine came today - the 3mm one worked great with some wire of unknown gauge that comes with the Lemo (its thicker than the .25 and .32 stuff I have) but the 2.5mm one was an epic fail with the the thinner wires - all overlapped and no use to man or beast. However they are a handy post to wrap around even so and I managed to mess about and make a half decent coil so thats an improvement for me. So going to be no good for making Kanger/Aspire coils but should be okay for recoiling the Lemo and sub tank RBA.

Probably worth the £4 I paid over all but not quite the solution to all coiling problems the you tube vids suggested (unless the real one works better - I notice on the FT clone the post is fixed where as on the real one it can come out of the base.

My Kuro coilers arrived today
Not had a lot of time with them but I have tried the 2.0 and the 2.5 using 0.25 Kanthal.
First coil - rubbish - all overlapped
Second coil - much better using no pressure on the head part.
Third coil - needed a little finagling with the last wrap but other than that seemed pretty much spot on.
I reckon a little patient practice and they will be fine.

 Mine arrived...& all I can say is...thank goodness I've got a coiler that works...NOT the Kuro...the prr 

[Pepperty]

Mine arrived today, first off they were terrible but after a good look at youtube I realised that only one screw is needed and that screw wasn't in fully so after tightening no 1 hole right up to body and that wasn't easy as I don't have an allen key to fit hole.... luckily my mandrel jammed in enough to twist firmly into place -- moving holes may now be an issue?

With a rubber band and now sore fingers AND my lid holes weren't drilled fully on one (amazing what you can do with a xmas cracker screwdriver) I have managed to turn out some coils, the major issue is NO pressure on lid as you turn -- its not as simple as they make out but its better than my hand twisted ones on a mandrel so not a waste of £4
