Thought I'd throw these pics in here too.

I added lip to wrap against using a piece of blunt needle, really helps make a nice coil.

Cool idea - I'll have to check that out.

I'll tell ya though - I'm getting seriously tight coils with that wire twister. You can keep some serious tension on the wire while you're wrapping the coil. Give about 135 degrees overturn for spring back on the last coil and you're done - nice and straight and no unwrapping.

this is what ive been looking for before i purchased a jig.. i think DZ needs to add these to his pins so that they stick out the same distance so we have some stability there and something to scrunch up against.. maybe he will make an edit to his production line. along with a 510 adapter to attach decks to. borrowed your picture for ref.. :p

All it would need is a spacer, drill out to take the mandril, then you would have the base to push against, it would also be a retrofix, for anyone that's already got the DZ jig

Let me start off by saying that Darkzero makes an awesome product. I wanted a jig that I could use for multiple sizes of coils. I contacted Darkzero to ask if he could make it for me. He said that he didn't want to change his design.

So I decided to make my own. It does 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm & 1/8"

Would you be interested in making me one of these? I have a PayPal account, I would love to have one of these. I also tried to contact DZ (before I found this thread) to inquire about purchasing one of his jigs, guess I was a few days too late.. If you are interested please message me the details of cost and shipping. Thank you.
