obsessed Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have just bought some beautiful Libbey 238 Rocks glasses and am struggling to decide where to start with wicks. I am using GW464 and CDN or HTP wicks .... the glass widens at the bottom , so I am not sure where to start at choosing a wick. Should I go for one that may fit the middle of the glass , or wick to accomodate the wider bottom? Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated!

TallTayl Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Do you have the dimensions and a pic of the glass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obsessed Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 Hi TT ... I can't look it up as the company has closed and I got them last minute! They are about 9.5cm diameter at the widest I think ... 30cm circumference. I was thinking maybe a Cdn 22 -24? just smashed one .... arrgghh ... now I have 23!

I would wick that one for the top, personally. I would start with a cd10 or cdn12 (CDN burn slightly cooler than cd in my experiments with soy). Then I'd adjust from there after I got through the first burn of the entire candle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
