Spheroid picture tutorial ... The Eggy way

[baconandeggs]

This is by far the simplest method and quickest way to rebuild the Spheroid with long lasting vape so say I

First you wanna get your wick, coil and foam cut (dimensions to follow) cause i aint got a ruler ???

Fold the wick ends over on themselves so the ends meet forming two loops and wrap your coil around it fairly tight, Im using 3mm silica wick and 0.20mm Kanthal A and should look like this but you may want to miss a loop if you are not using a VV / VW device.

The next bit is very important ... remove the two nuts from the base and put them in a bag for safe keeping and then you can start to wrap the lower peg coil around the threads till it's gone or just trim it off if if youve not followed my measurements and made it a mile long
The nuts are not used so your wrapping the coil around the poles.
Do the short leg first

And then the long one, fold back the wick and don't be afraid to tug at it

It should look like this after

Grab both ends of the wick and lift it over both poles so it's sitting over the air hole nicely.
When it's inline pull one end of the loop and pull the extended tale through so it comes nearer the coil and repeat for the other side.
It will be slanted because of the pole heights but if your particular just make a bigger loop on th other side and voila you have this with no trimming involved.


Wrap you filler either way left or right handed don't matter just better to follow the direction

And it will look like this

After that just push down the filler so it sits in the bell nicely

And fill with juice

Friggin hell, no wonder Todd does Video an Hr to do this and i could do all that in a minute so I hope it helps someone.

off to find a ruler back in a mo

What foam are you using,as my wonder foam is a lot denser than yours looks?

[baconandeggs]

85mm for wick (same as mini Provari base)
115mm coil but you can go longer
80mm length foam, i find this better with no flooding
23mm width, as above.
6mm thick or as good as

all approximate, funny how they come to Provari sizes

The filler i used is Juwel aquarium (blue) fine

Regards

B&E (pitza's done) I can smell it

And disregard the dirty fingers I done this quickly.

Also be safe, I cut the foam very easily with one of those retractable hobby knife's and all this can be done in a minute or two without using the Nuts

Thanks for taking the time to do the picture tutorial Eggy! I much prefer them to video

May be tempted to buy a Sherpoid now, I already have the filler from when I had aquariums

Vapist's got some for sale now, Karma.

Only the polished ones, though.

Managed to get a polished one just after 9pm (Birthday pressie from my wife)
Should I get a repair kit too?

[dognero]

Well this is the first time I have ever tried to do this.
Followed this post and it works (shock horror)
Great flavour.
Thanks for a great post
Lets hope I can do it again.
Next to try my nova

Nice post, I may try taking them screws off as they are quite annoying on times.

Nuts another tip if you have long nails is to use a needle, push the needle into a cork (safety reasons) and put the wire through the eye and twist it around

[lobeydosser]

I noticed on a review for another rebuildable atty, that when winding the wire around the (nutted) posts, before he screwed the nut down, he used a set of small long nosed pliers, to pull the wire tight onto the post.

Now that sounds like an intelligent thing to do.

You don't need long nosed pliers ??? just make the wire long enough to pull it tight with your fingers (without nuts) as they are not needed.
Try it, it makes life easier
