Thought I'd create a thread to gather tips on wicking and coiling the Dvarw. I'm loving it, but it's been quite a learning curve:
I've found two good wicking methods
1. An 'S' wick - similar to how people have been doing 'M' wicks, but on its side so you can see what's going on. I cut the wick to the lip of the barrel, which is fitted at a 45 degree angle. Then sweep the tails in the direction of the the hole. This seems to present the ends of the cotton to the juice rather than the side
2. Don't have a name. But after experimenting with poking the wick through the holes, I tried cutting the wick to the lip of the barrel. Then removing the barrel and trimming to tails to a point. Just a touch off the top to the height of the coil, then each side. You should have a point that will poke through the hole in the barrel about 1mm when reattached. This has been the most effective method so far...
