A vape tool comprises a coiling rod 114, and a coiling tool 94 for engaging with and rotating around the coiling rod 114, the coiling tool 94 having a housing 96 with a substantially conical inner wall, a collet 106 disposed inside the housing 96 and arranged to bear against the inner wall, an internal diameter of the collet 106 being determined by the longitudinal position of the collet within the housing and a control means 112 for controlling the longitudinal position of the collet 106 within the housing 96. The tool 94 forms part of a vape tool kit (10, FIG. 1) including a four part housing for housing a tool barrel (22, FIG. 1), a spool (44, FIG. 1) and a sealable container.

A coiling machine includes feed rollers for moving a wire, a wire guide, a first forming roller, a second forming roller, a pitch tool, a cutting mechanism, and a support mechanism for supporting the wire. The cutting mechanism includes a cutting rotor. The wire coming out of the wire guide is formed into a helical shape by the first forming roller, the second forming roller and the pitch tool. After one coil spring of a predetermined length is formed, the wire is cut by moving the cutting rotor in the radial direction of the wire. The cutting rotor cuts the wire supported by the support mechanism in the radial direction of the wire between the second forming roller and the pitch tool.
