Finished two projects in the last 24 hours-Finally got the old Ford truck back on the road after needing to replace the power steering pump and lines(Getting the pulley off the old pump and on the new one was a REAL bastid of a job, ahtellyuhwhut!) The other project was getting some blackberry cleared off of the fence line. Sure, fresh blackberries are tasty, but if not carefully watched and religiously trimmed, the damn stuff goes EVERYWHERE. I reclaimed a full two feet of driveway-WOOT! I hurt like hell, and the spasms have started but dammit- I GOT IT DONE, SON!

Got my hangsen aromas to day, from vanillavapes.co.uk, which came with some butterscotch toffee and some lil extras. Love it when delivery is faster from EU than in my own country. Definatly up there with chefs. Love good first experiences when trying out new vendors

Man, I have to learn how to do the vertical as clean as you got them I for the life of me always twist those things to oblivion when I try to twist them rightside up. Still trying to perfect those, and have been trying to do my SC that way. Any Tips you care to share?

Thanks a lot @nicomanteno, not sure if there’s a trick to them, as they are just single wire, 6-7 wraps, but I have gotten a lot faster, and better over time. I’m not sure what you meant by rightside up, but coils are coils when you’re wrapping them, at least as far as orientation goes, that’s not done until you finalize the lead wires and/or land the leads on the deck. I have a very old tutorial I made for another forum, and although the coils aren’t as nice and neat as I do now, you’ll get the idea.

Thanks Now I know what I have been doing wrong, building more like a horizontal build and just putting a rod in the to twist it vertical = bad hot legs and uneven glow.

Ohhh, now I see. I just make them just like the pics, and sometimes after loading the deck there are minor hot spots, but strumming and pinching always fixes it quickly.

Again another smile for the day, yeah, Thanks I will get those SC to peak perfection in no time now, always loved them. got quite a few to set up for a new build next time.

Some people prefer horizontals over verts, but I’ve just had great luck using them, and haven’t changed much since I started. Perhaps horizontals wick faster with two tails, but I never run mine dry as is.

Well, dude, if you come as you are for your ID picture I doubt you’ll have a problem. If you decide to turn up in Bat Mode, you probably will

My bat mode is a bit deceiving if you don’t look real hard into it

Its harder than i thought it was. I only know four cords but I’m getting better every day. My fingers are getting really really sore. Getting the right finger placement on the fret is the hardest part.
