  2. Jeff I hope all goes good for you. I think they are just slow & their customer service sucks, they are located in Hamilton Ohio (weird so is the Candlemaker store) not IA. give it a day or 2 & see what happens, I called discovered & they told me that if I didnt get my order in 30days they would credit my account and try to contact them theirselves. I JUST HOPE U GET UR WAX. Please let me know.
  3. I don't understand either, I placed a order for wax on 11-1, I had e-mailed & called them with no replies, I just got a tracking # yesterday and my wax is being shipped from Ohio not IA , where i thought they were located. I really gotton nervous when I read all the reviews on here & getting no replies from them, But my wax is on the way. PHEW!!!!
  4. Midwest Candle Supply has 31% off everything til 11-3. I gonna order some wax.
  5. with the lx wicks I just get puffs coming up every few minutes. didnt get hardly hot throw. I got pretty good throw with the zinc wicks, . maybe we can work together to figure this out for the best scent throw. two heads r better than 1. LOL if you want e-mail me at mcquay5@yahoo.com
  6. I been using the pint size regular mouth mason jars 3" dia., I like the zinc wicks the best, no smoke or soot,even burn , but the 51z just wasn't cutting it, too long to get a fmp. Im wicking up to a 60z. you might have to use the 61z. I would try either on of the 2 60z or 61z. I tries lx 18, no fmp, smoked htp104 fmp, but smoke & soot. Im sure the more experience chandlers will give more input. Good luck!!! Im testing too...
  7. I use the 4630 wax,1oz pp. i tried the htp104 ,htp105, lx18 & 51-32-18z . The one that has given me no soot or smoke has been the zinc , but the melt pool took 5 hrs to get full & still has a low scent throw. I using 12oz regular mason jars & let the candle sit for 1.5 days before lighting it (should I wait longer?). I'm thinking I need to increase the wick size, could somebody please let me know what is the next size wick after 51z.? The 51z worked in my 8oz jjs great... I have read through these threads for 2 weeks & I have learned soooo much from you wonderful candlemakers. I WANT TO GIVE EVERYBODY A BIGGGGGG THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! SMOOCH!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:
  8. maybe the fo was burning off, I did do one today adding fo at 150, then pouring, I will wait for a couple days to see how it throws. boy this sure is like science & I'm gonna stick to it!!!! even if i wind up bald from pulling my hair out!!!!
  9. i used mac apple from NG 1.5 oz pp. clean cotton from NG 1.5oz autum leaves from CW 1.5oz lovespell from CW 1.5 pp
  10. I use the candle blend CBL130 from Candlewic in regular pint size mason jars with htp 105 wicks. Candle looks GREAT, but no hot scent throw. I heat the wax up to 180 add color & fo, stir 2 mins & pour at 150. waited 5 days tested & nothing. spoke to Bill at candlewic, he stated to melt the wax , add color & add fo at 150, stirred 2 mins. wait 24-48hrs & burn. I bought my fo from bittercreek , candlewic & nature's garden. Can anybody help me figure out what is going on??. Does anybody else use this wax?
