So I got my fogger and nemesis and was proper worried that it was going to be an absolute pain in the arse and take weeks to get right. I hastily made a quick coil using the free wire that comes with the Fogger and it was absolutely lovely :)

Later in the evening curiosity got the better of me and I decided to try taking my time, doing things right and trying the ribbon wire I bought.

Although it was extremely fiddly, especially because I couldn't for the life of me find a pair of tweezers in the bloody house, but I cracked on and in the end the results were absolutely amazing :D

Im sure I could have done things better but for a first try I'm quite proud. To anyone thinking of going mech and feeling nervous about doing so I wouldn't worry. All it takes is a some research, a little bit of patience and a lot of juice :D

Looks good. I got the same deal you did with the Nemesis. Also just got the Fogger and also just started out in my own coils. Also got the ribbon wire but haven't tried it yet. Seems like we are at a similar stage. What atty is that built on?
Here's my effort on the Fogger...

Don't think I got the wick right as it seems very dry and harsh. Was gonna rebuild it today using the ribbon but didn't get round to it. Anyway, nice one.

Mine was built on the Fogger V3 mate, wasn't too fussed on dual coils for my first time. With regards to your wicking from my rather limited knowledge on the subject that does look like an awful lot of cotton. You should be able to slide your cotton through the coils with pretty much no resistance. Ill take a picture of my coil & wick tomorrow for you when my new juice gets here as I'll have to change from this amazing custard as I get all excited when the post man comes :D
