I was always wondering what handmade coils are? Is it made without a drill and purely with the hand?
Or then is machine made coils made without a hand but with a drill?

Hand made coils refers to custom coils built by people and not machine/mass produced. These are far more superior than mass produced coils/wire.I was always wondering what handmade coils are? Is it made without a drill and purely with the hand?

Yes. But for more intricate wire like Aliens, it gets a lot harder to master. Possible but it does take a while to master.DIY coils are the way!!!

Yeah very true! Haha, I don't do heavy builds at all..but noticed that factory made coils are often not the resistance they claim to be. But that's from my little experience with factory made.Yes.

Thanks, that's a great explanationHand made coils refers to custom coils built by people and not machine/mass produced. These are far more superior than mass produced coils/wire.
A good example will be @RiaanRed 's coils which are hand made. These coils have a much thinner outter wrap wire than mass produced wires like Geekvapes. They are better for lots of reasons (check out his subforum threads for more info on This)
Geekvape/mass produced wires and coils are done by machine and use a thicker outter wrap wire like 32g. This takes away that advantages of using a custom coil as the effects are different. It uses more power and heats up differently. The thinner wire also helps with the wicking and gives an overall smoother, more superior vape. The differences between the 2 in terms of Vape quality is noticeable.
Get yourself a set of custom coils and you'll see why they are superior. These coils generally last 3-6 months depending on how often you rewick and clean them.
Seriously talented @Mr_Puffs. Those look fresh! What ohms do you rate they will sit on?Hand made coils are the best.. Custom made these for a forum member. Such a fun hobby.

You and Puffs should go into business!braids are arguably the most hand-made coils possible, and produce an incredible vape. braiding is a great way to build clean coils, because it is systematic, and foolproof once you gain a bit of muscle memory. #knittingforboys
Thanks Bud appreciate it. They ohm at around the 0.1 mark for dual coils.Seriously talented @Mr_Puffs. Those look fresh! What ohms do you rate they will sit on?

Thanks Amir. Yeah the flavour is pretty solid I have to say. They are quite big considering there is 7 strands of 29g in total. So a bit of a higher watt vape.That's a wicked looking build there bud... Is the flavor as good as the rest of your coils?

Hahaha yeah not completely your style. Maybe if I cut the wire sizes in half. haha. Have to say those fraliens were fun to make. Love it when I can make something new.Sooo... not my style u mean?
I like ur smaller coils like the fused claptons and aliens... Best of the lot was the fraliens

@Rooney-Vapes Very simple setup that works every time! Definitely a nice build to start out with. The only way you going to learn is by testing new things.At work made this coil just for fun..
Guess it's a example of a very basic hand made coil. SS316 26G 10 wrapped around screwdriver. Spaced coils are easy to make just compress the coil and it pops out quite neatly to that spaced shape. I run these but I am also ready to move on to something more complicated I feel I should be getting more flavour out my coils. These spaced single wire coils have their limits I believe. Maybe I'll go quad twist and see what happens @Cuzzie
