Hi all I have this wire but I find difficult to wick as is very thin, so I was wondering what type of build I can do with this? Can I twist it to make it more rigid?

Thank you

Yes, you can certainly twist it. The resistance of the resultant wire will be quite low but still useable. Steam engine has a facility for working out the resistance of twisted wire set ups.
 
i think something is wrong?

ok, thank i will take a look, how can i twist it?
It's very easy. I used to use a pen like this:

Just pop the wire through the loop, hold the ends together with pliers and turn the pen until the wire is tightly twisted. Alternatively, you can use a drill and the same procedure.
 
If you have no drill, just make a loop of wire, grip one end with pliers and put a pen through the other end and twist.

Alternatively, loop the wire through the handle of a coffee mug, let it hang, and then spin the mug.
 
Still wrong i think i do something wrong
