Notes:
*Fiberglass sleeve used - HTG fiberglass, does not fray like standard high temperature sleeving (1000F) and is rated for . See [http://www.hitexinsulation.com/products/HTG-Fiberglass-Sleeve.htm]. Note that the resin can burn out at the 650C (1200F) workign temp. Sleeve has [[VW-1]] flame resistance. Made of fiberglass, it does not burn out, but may fuse and lose fiber structure.
*Inner core: 5' long wraparound of 2mm tight braid fiberglass sleeve - 600C - [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32862062385.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dnHgKvS]. Started with 5', wrap was more like 4' long.

Theoretical idea:

But, ga 18 can't bend easily using a cordless drill.

*20 feet of 20 ga wire appears to be most convenient - 1 piece, max at 1200F. Current 500W heater is 1200F max, and works well.

*14 feet of 24 ga works perfectly by hand to get a good wrap over 4 feet, and goes fast, about 1 minute pending tieups:
