ChandlerWicks Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hello Tracey, No I havent.....I just replaced the 750 wicks to 2 #765 wicks. I just wished I had more than 1 jar to test a couple at the same time. This is taking forever! lol Working with 1 jar. How is your tureen coming along? Are the 2 eco 6's doing good? Trappeur2nd burn did well, only tested for 3 hours that time. Just lit it for the 3rd burn. Love this jar! I'll be on the hunt for them soon.

ChandlerWicks Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Can you take some pictures? TrappeurI will! I know I should have waited until it hardened & cured . but I couldn't. PM your addy again, need to send SCR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerWicks Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) This is after the 3rd 3 1/2 burn, got sleepy so I stopped it. The wicks did get tiny mushroom balls by the end, I don't care for those. Maybe with the richness of this SCR I need to lower FO%.

Trappeur Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 Wow, that is a really nice burn with those 2 eco 6's. What I did per Old Glorys suggestion is try 2 Premier 765's instead of 2 755's that I was going to do after I pulled the 750's and wow mine did great too. Only thing is I didn't have the 765's anchored down and one of the wicks fell over but it did beautiful. Looked just like your wicks Tracy, melt pool and all.Well I'm ordering a package of wicks today and a few other sizes too since so I can finish my testing. Then the candle can cure some too as there was no throw with mine as it had only sat 2 days b/4 I lit it. Please post when your done if you have decided on this wick.

Ravens Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Just a sec.... I may be going senile and perhaps missed it, but you aren't both using the same wax, correct? I thought that you, Trappeur, used a soy wax, whereas you, Chandler, use a paraffin combo. "Confuzzed" here, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using 464 in the tureen, 4627/4786 in madisons, Palm in status. But of course that could change at any minute. i'm not the one that does parasoy.Thank-you again, it is so beautiful!

TrappeurThe depth & width of the MP is slowing down due to hardening & curing. Ht isn't overwhelming either now so may need to go up. Have to wait & see.

In this tureen we both are using 464 but using different wicks. Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 Tracey, What fragrance are you using? Sugar Cookie Royale? Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerWicks Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Yes, Sugar Cookie Royale. Such a different burn today, I lit it at 12:15 & still low MP & barely any HT. I may have trimmed wicks too short. Ecos are self-trimming so maybe I messed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yep, you're right, it is a beautiful looking container! Edited September 9, 2014 by Ravens 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerWicks Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 This is it at the end of it's 8th long burn. MP is 1/2" deep, may look deep, but it's just the pic. HT is getting really good. The wicks get little mush balls, I think they are from the 6% SCR, I'm going to try 4 & 5% next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
