  1. Thanks for the info. I'll try cutting them at that size. Yeah, the flame is can grow from 1 1/2 inch or a little higher. When I tried the lx-22, it didn't quite get the melt pool I wanted so I just use the 24's. So I'll cut it 1/4 and see how that does. Thanks for the help and have a great weekend. :grin2:

  2. Hi everybody! I'm having trouble with the flame of the LX-24's. They work very well (melt pool) with my natural palm wax 3 x 5 pillars but no matter how short I cut the wick, the flame grows too high (at least in my opinion). Has anybody else encountered this? I cut the wick at least 1/2 inch or less. TIA

  3. Dee you are too funny! Thanks for sharing your story. It's funny that I was soaping on the same day, and yes, my husband was talking to me too and guess what? While I started a beautiful green swirl, I happen to look up and saw the oil on the scale. :( So, I did what any other trooper would do. I just plopped it all back into the crock, added the oil, colored it throughtout and put it back into the mold. All the while, seething and mumbling because I knew this was gonna be a good swirl. Oh well, as it turns out, it's actually very pretty. :D Husband, kids, dog, telephone, neighbors, in-laws, go figure. lol

  4. Hey, Cynthia, where ya been?

    I feel like I've been around the moon to Jupiter and back. LOL Life has thrown me some curves and boy have I struck out on a few and hit a few. Right now, my bases are loaded and I'm waiting on the Pinch Hitter. You know Who I mean! After taking a hiatus, I made some soap two weeks ago. I tried the red oxide you sent me and it's so purty. I'll take a pic and post it later.

    How's everything with you? Your family?

  5. I coulde not get Peaks Clean Cotton to throw for the life of me. I tried everything. Of course I use CB4627. I know of a few other members that could not get it to throw.

    The only clean cotton I could get to throw was WillowWoods, but they shut down.

    Hey Lady! I remember you asking about a "Clean Cotton" awhile back. I think I mentioned to try a sample from LoneStar. Did you ever get it? If not, I would "highly" recommend it.
