Just have to say gals & guys thanks for all the tips & trick you have honoured this post with, where would we be without them.
Can't wait till my Kayfun, Nemisis & Taifun arrive from FT, hopefully before Xmas.
Keep up the good work.

Denis.... Same as you mate ... I've ordered the kayfun and Taifun (clones  ) from FT also... The coiling trials and tribulations listed in this post have been a massive help ... Might even have found a use for that jumbo 3mm ekowool ! |

Ha!! I didn't order kayfun till 3/11 ... They are still struggling for stock so don't expect it to ship for a few days yet ... Says 20/11 but I've been there before with the ithaka... Took forever .... I only ordered the GT today ... £12 ! Rude not to .... If either arrive before Christmas I'll be a happy bunny .... Although I'm still new to this RBA lark I figure if I can make 2 non-res/ res coils for the ithaka this should be a doddle ( famous last words !)

2mm drill bit, 12 wraps of 0.25 Kanthal around the drill bit, once done take the coil of the drill bit and hold with tweezers and heat the coil until red hot whilst holding the coil tight with the tweezers and let it cool down, do this a couple of times, fix the coil to the Kayfun, put some Organic cotton wool through the coil and make sure you don't block the juice channel, wet the cotton with your preferred juice, Put the Kayfun back together and fill it up, leave for a couple of minutes and do a few dry pulls and Vape Away. Sorted  |
