I can grip them but not crush them when empty yet! Previously the thumb would dislocate on the base joint very very easily. I can't remember when it fealt this tight , think this is going to work , chuffed to nuts. Only 4 external stitches, now gone and the stitches internally on the tendon are dissolving. For the first time in along time I'm not worried about it popping out. People slag off the NHS, but I can only say that whilst I had to wait a while, they have been absolutely superb. It's fair to say I have only had good results out of the NHS, I think the same as the poster above that some people do have another agenda. The NHS isn't a free service and to be fair they are one of the best in the world. With a small fee for consultation I truly believe that the waiting lists would come down, people would think twice about using a "free" service because they had a cold. |

This is all part of the great hobby that is vaping for fun - not just for nicotine smokin100516 and if you give it time and practice plus trial and error you will get there. Greg is canny with his money so he won't advise you to buy stuff you don't need  and I know cos I've met him! So yeah....viva vaping and your first coil looks jolly good! Well done! This is the one reason I like it because I get to solve something, it will happen, it just depends on how much juice I waste on dry hits, and I need to lower my nic, I think I od'd last night just testing, I don't need another night like that  |

 My first attempt. I'm going to buy a magnifying glass and a light I think, my eyes just aren't what they were since I turned 40  How do I make it straight? Is it because it was too loose or do I need to to heat it up and pinch? To be fair I haven't got a clue  Looks great to me, smokin100516, plus thanks for mentioning about the magnifying light; need to be able to see really well for coiling, as I'm noticing too! Using the coiling kit will ensure you have a perfectly round coil. I saw a vid on youtube where the guy removed the coil, then turned it around, put it back on the coiler and pushed down on the coil again, to tidy it up. I do that, plus hold the coil in the coiler and top, using plyers to straighten the legs. Can get a great butane lighter on Amazon; Coney. , however I know have a bedroom to strip, plaster and decorate so it's something I will have to dip in and out of, thank the lord for OCC  |

Lovely job smokin100516Yes heat and squeeze/shape with tweezers and it will retain the shape when cooled.. the magnifying lamp is a crucial bit of kit this end also.. others have suggested buying el cheapo reading glasses 2x and 3x for magnifying what your working on, as i need that level of correction already not much use to me .. Thanks phatfil Good to know I'm not the only one who needs a magnifying glass  I've wicked it and it seems ok just lacking in flavour compared to the stock OCC. (it seems to be wicking but not enough, time to try again) Oh and I went for 1.5 and got 1.2 so I need an extra wrap next time. |

Thanks. Just had an order from Stealthvape so I will have a look. I like the idea of it being USB rechargeable.  |

So I've ordered a sampler pack with 1.5, 2.0, & 2.5 and a spool of 2.8, 3.0 &3.5, a microcoiler, a jig dealy. I also remembered the free cotton Greg oh and a free rubber band I do so much hope you mean 0.28, 0.3 and 0.35 wire! Or you will need a fricking big atty to take all those wraps an have to run it off the mains power    lol I think that would create massive clouds. |

I'm going to try a few variations but this sounds like similar to what I would go for. The spacing just sounds like the better idea for letting vapour vent into the chimney for my sucking delight  |
