Have this atomizer, some silica wick and .20 kanthal wire...

I need some advice so I can do this well.
 
Oh by the way I just noticed the vid is for a double wick. I'd just go for the one coil for now if your starting out with about 4-5 wraps of wire

Stick at it guys, practice practice practice and it becomes second nature, but even then I'm sure we all have our bad days and can't get it right for shit ;)
 
I cant do this for shit.

Stick with it, my first coil looked like an old ball of string after a cat had been at it but you'll get there. Warm the Kanthal with a lighter to soften it a little and this will make it easier to work with and you might find it easier to use a small sewing pin to wrap the kanthal around at first.
 
I'm currently looking to explore microcoils with cotton wick, they seem much easier, Just anneal your wire with a lighter or torch, wrap it very tightly round a 2.5mm ish drill bit, then slide it off, using tweezers press the coils together so that they touch each other like a solid tube and use the lighter / torch to heat them again setting them in that position. you can the fit that coil to your dripper and drag or poke a piece of cotton wool through the coil, wet it with ejuice and away you go. Pbusardo has a good first attempt video, and links to the best tutorials...:grin2:

Right. here's the simplist way!
Take a bit of wick.
Take some wire.
take a pin, and place next to wick so it's touching.
Wrap wire around both pin and wick so they coils are close together.
Remove pin.
Undo screws on RDA slightly
Wrap the ends of the wire that aren't coiled around it once, keeping the coil as close as possible (But not touching) the poles.
Tighten screws.
Cut the excess wick off ;)
