All credit goes to Blakey... i just stole it and added it to the AAE-C Wiki


I did this guide to help someone and I sent it to a couple of other people to help them out and it was suggested that I post it here for anyone else it may help.
This is seriously the best silica wicked attie that I have ever used



right- .2 ni-chrome at about 6-6.5cm



Fold it and wrap the coil like this, note that I bent the connecting ends round to make fitting easier. That's 1.5mm silica wick



fit the bugga



Make sure that the coil is clear of anything it can short on and above the airhole



Fold it upwards and thread through the tube and screw it down



You end up with this



Trim it so that you end up with this



Then poke the wick ends down to the base in a clockwise direction, it should cover all of the base like this. No need to force it down the sides of the main plinth, it just needs to rest on the base, It will pick up any juice rising up the channels. Chance here to tidy the coils



Get some juice on it and that'll make it easier to keep it all down



Assemble and fill
