Kaybee23 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 As long as you are not selling those, and making them only for yourself, then i dont think its as big of a concern. But Its obviously not a safe candle to burn. Are you just burning those for yourself?I am not sure Garf has ever sold a candle. I don't think he is in it for the money, but for the fun of seeing what he can create. But he has come up with some very "interesting" things, LOL!

MasterBaker2 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Interesting wick you have there. Nice to see you back Garf. Man, with the grief the poor guy is taking in this thread it'll probably be a while before we see him again. At least he's not cluttering up the landfills with stuff.

sharyl55 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Garf, glad to see you are still having fun saving the landfills. How in the world did you cut off the bottom of your beer can so neatly? Had to be some super duper guy power tool. Love your lens. Fantastic close up pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mtngrl Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Garf, so lovely to see you again, & up to your usual tricks I see. Kinda of a cool looking wick. I too was thinking that would be great w/ citronella candles.Nice close-up of the wick in the flame ... totally diggin' it, in fact. I recently have gotten into buying/using photo equip for macro. Now to resize my pix to share .... Looking forward to seeing more of your ... er, experiments w/ your new closeup lens.Welcome back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topofmurrayhill Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Looks like a rocket engine test.Playing with fire for shits and giggles. I dig it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Garf...I like the flame......size does matter! When I sell mine to minors, along with the usual burning instructions, I always include this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceCarvesWax Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I think Garf has a bunch of women folk that dig him here. I could never post a picture of something like that and get 40-50 replies like he does every time! Garf, the macho, mystery metal mangler and tealight torcher. Hey Garf, dont stay away so long next time, its hard for us to explain to the noobs what kind of candle testing you do each time you come back.

Donita Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Bruce....that's his point....he doesn't test....he just goes for it!!!!!!! ....and BTW you get a lot of attention when you post.

Donita Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Garf...Many years ago I was married to a man who was a close tolerance welder....I miss what he could do with metal. You would definitely be a great man to have around. And, you make fire too! Donita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garf Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 Ditto on that......
