    thank you stella, I think I have found a supplier here in memphis. I looked up resturant supplies and found some good prices on 8oz tumblers.

    thank you for your insight, I believe I am getting ahead of myself. I will see how the ones I have made turn out with the different wicks I used.

    I am new to this and am trying to find the right wax. what are the advantages of using a soy blend instead of say c3.I have heard the goldenbrands 444 is a good blend. I used c3 to pour my first candles which I am waiting to cure but would like to make the best candles. thank you for the help

    I guess the question I asked is pretty lame now that I read more about wicks, and candles in general.

    thank you very much for your help. I think the thrift stores will be the best bet for now as I try to learn this tricky trade.
