Need expert help on this one guys!

So, I am making candles that have a diameter of 7 inches at the top. (5 at the base)

I have made templates to help me align the wicks on the bottom (to help me place them properly) and the top (to hold the wicks in place, so I don't have to tie each one with string and tape!)

But I can't seem to get it perfect. I have watched videos and I have used circles to symbolize the wax pool etc. I have scoured wick charts and youtube.

I am using CD 18s or 22s, but again-I can't get an even melt pool that isn't too deep or shallow.

 

Any advice on how many wicks (and what size) to use for a 7 inch wide vessel with 464 wax? (I know it's an overly specific thing)
