Sounds like an enterprising individual could make a little money making their own and selling a few.
Mine are priced quite competitively on a site in Canada, diyflavorchaser , Iāve told the site manager that when someone buys several sets of aliens/fraliens, to send something free along in their pkg. Shipping is gonna be the problem tho, in the states, Iām daveflowers9 on IG, hit me up
Iāve had a few of your coils sent to me by an ELR family member and they are fantastic coils. Unfortunately I donāt do social media. Itās like garlic to a vampire for me.
Have used these guys for the past 3 years for all my wire needs - they are top-notch!.
Here is a link to WireOptim premade clapton spools. 25ft spools of single to 4 core claptons available in Kanthal, SS, Ni80 or Ni90
E.g. 4 x 25ft clapton spools from $10.99 - $26.99 each with shipping to NZ only $12.37 USD (1 - 4 week delivery)
They get 90% of my wire purchase. Love those guys!
I just spent twenty minutes looking around- theyāve got all the spools a person could want!
Start developing a wire fetish hanging around a site like that long enough⦠next thing youāre wrapping your dick in quad-core moaning softly in a mirror.
Even their pre-wound are the same price for a 10-pack as local sites charge for 2 coils, not that Iād buy pre-made - the only pre-wound coils Iāve ever used are the ones come with the tanks Iāve bought: soon as theyāre filthy I toss em and return to my round *kanthal.
*to be replaced, soon as the 250ft spool of 28ga ni80 arrives⦠plus a smaller 30ft roll of 26ga SS I ordered just to try TC, since Iāve still never used it.
Got plenty of round kanthal already so didnāt bother with anymore of that shit.
Iāve bookmarked it for future use.
LMAO One of my good friends might have said the EXACT same thing. That cracked me up!
someone may have mentioned this but i bought a pack of 80 XFKM coils for like 10$ CAD on aliexpresss
they are machine rolled so they are perfect looking
I HATE building coils
Wish Iād have seen that image before I started using steamengine and throwing out all itās results wondering what the hell I was doing wrong! This with the leg length alone is why I could never get a coil to ohm out at what was suggested. I always just presumed leg length was from the very edge of the coil. Just made a couple using this image as a guide and Iām BANG ON the 0.30 Iām aiming for.
Anyway, this is why I love this community!
I was definitely doing a few things wrong and thanks to everyone explaining and showing pics I was able to achieve my goal when I made my next few coils. I did throw out several I made but felt the need to use the ones that ohmād out at .19 due to feeling a sense of accomplishment . Iām glad you were able to figure yours out as well!
