    I've searched the web, but only find outdated ones. I look at this one all the time....and was wondering if there are others.
  5. kwillenborg

    for the info on the sq. mason jars............I'll check them out!!!
  11. kwillenborg
    who has the best price on them..........I'm in TX.........so I'd have to consider the shipping. Karen

    Those look great!! I'd like that to be my next project!! What wax do you use? Karen

    Thanks for both of your thoughts on this. Maybe I just need to burn someone else's candle in the same place and compare the scent throw. I just want to make a quality candle. Karen

    I make 8 oz sq masons and usually burn them in a living/kitchen area which is probably close to half of my 28' x 60' double wide home. How strong should the scent be? How is it determined how large of an area a candle should fragrance? Also how quick should you be able to smell it? Thanks for letting me use your nose!!! Karen

    for the info....... Karen

    May I ask where you get sq. masons for .33 and lids for .10.............
  17. kwillenborg
    I agree pouring up into the neck....otherwise they look skimpy. Just wondered if that affected the craters or sink holes. Poured a couple last night, and put back the in jar box to cool.........only had a small crack around the edge...................guess that's the secret!!!! Happy candling!!!! Karen

    Where do you stop filling on the 8 oz square mason for a single pour? I want to fill into the base of the neck, but have a horrible time with sink holes. I use Ecosoya 135 and pour at 135.........open for any suggestions........... Karen

    Thanks!!

    Me, too, on 8 oz square Masons........use Eco 8............where do you get the 16 oz square Masons...........
  21. kwillenborg
    I'll give heating the jars a try.........
  22. kwillenborg
    Do you have any problems with the EcoSoya 135 frosting or having rough tops? I'm ready to throw up my hands with this wax. What temp do you pour? Do you use additives? I poured the 70/30 sample from GL and really liked the end result. Karen
  23. kwillenborg
    the 70/30 looks great!!! Poured two 8 oz square Mason jars/Eco 8's/Peak's Jamaica Me Crazy/liquad dye...3 red, 1 orange, 1 yellow/heated to 195, pour @ 150. Result: a smooth and creamy, great colored candle.....a good cold throw.......no frost or rough tops!!!!! Whooo Hooooo! Waiting a couple of days before the first burn!! If the burn is as good as everything else..........I'll be hooked!!! Karen

    I'm new to this adventure and read the message board daily. I don't use this wax, but EcoSoya CB135 and I have the same problems........never have I read about filling the jar past where the neck narrows.......but it makes sense as I think about some past batches that I've poured.......BUT I use the 8 oz square mason jar and for it to be an 8 oz candle and for it to look good, it must be filled.............any other suggestions????
  25. kwillenborg
    That's about the same time for me. I'm only using the square mason jar, haven't ventured to anything else. I use the Eco 8 wick and it does good with most all FO's I've used........1 to 1.25 oz. load. I'm in TX so I haven't used any of the companies you mentioned. How about frosting? I use liquad dye....and anything that I tend to use brown in frosts......I believe that's due to the vanilla in the FO. I also would like to try some other soy wax, but don't know where to start. Any Texans out there in the Dallas area, give me a shout:wave: about the wax you use.
