    There is not any mention of wick on your website that I could find. will you be selling wick by the spool?

    Not sure if that is possible. Actually learned something new on https://www.reddit.com/r/candlemaking/ Secure the wick with a twist in it. Then as it burns the curl will slowly rotate thereby keeping the melt pool more even. running a test on this now.

    I live within long driving distance from www.letitshineusa.com. Order over the phone and pick it up from the warehouse in Kent Washington. Stop by Swans Candles on the way home for wick and scent. Swans has some proprietary paraffin blends I will be trying soon. Let it Shine sells IGI waxes same as most companies. Cargill and IGI seem to be the biggest wax manufacturers. i suspect most of the fragrances come from one or two manufacturers and are then packaged and resold by the candle companies. maybe someone here knows different

    Hi Hal, I used coffee urns from thrift stores for years for dipping candles for carving. Would have 4 or 5 inches of water with the melted wax on top. Works great, lots of unplugging and plugging back in to control the temperature. Finally had one start leaking a while back. maybe try with a thrift store one first and see if the spigot gets clogged or not.
