Right so I tried to make my first Clapton coil last night, might I add without a drill.
I partially straightened some 24 awg, this I think was my first mistake, twist it more next time so its straighter.
I tried wrapping 32 awg round it with some success until 2 issues occurred. First when tightening the gaps I accidently started going back up the wire so was double claptoning it!! when I unravelled the wire wasn’t as straight which caused bumps. Secondly the 32awg has a mind of it’s own and liked to kink up now and again causing the same issue.
A final nail in the coffin was that it was a tight fit in the Plume Veil, so much so after 10mins of poking around and 30 minutes or so of frustrating wrapping I gave up and binned it.
Question do these issues occur with the drill and is the Clapton really worth It as if it is I will try on 26awg.
Also some storys of similar frustration would ease my annoyance.
