Gdawg Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I can't remember where I bought my tins from a couple of years ago and I am now in need of some more and the ones I have been seeing online have the feet/raised bottom. Few questions...How do the ones with feet work on a warmer, do they still do okay and melt and give you the smell of the wax?I found some at http://wholesalesuppliesplus.com/StoreCategory.aspx?CatalogID=9&GroupID=586&CategoryID=300&CategoryName=Silver+Deep+Tinsbut it doesnt say if they are flat so wondering if anyone here knows also these from http://www.buywax.com/product.asp?specific=jrepqno8 ?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banirs Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 WSP's tins are flat bottomed. Are you using a wick? Flat bottomed may be more of fire hazard. Banirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gdawg Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 No these are for the wickless that I just place on a warmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEP Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 A little trick I discovered by accident, is to put the lid to the tin on the melter upside down, and then set the tin bottom in the lid. I raises the tin just a tiny bit and actually seems to help some.Sandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gdawg Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 oh good trick thanks for the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I get my tins from sks, and do the lid thing too! (and I thought *I* was so smart and imaginative LOL!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Are you looking for flat tins. I know a Canadian supplier who also has a US price site too. Let me know if you are interested and I'll send you a pm. I've never used the raised feet but the flat ones I get have no centre so you have to do that part on your own.

Gdawg Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Firefly~ Thanks for your response. I placed an order the other day for some so I am now just waiting for there arrival lol. These are just for warmers and will be NO wick in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickTricks Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 When it comes to tins with flat bottoms, I've had really good luck with www.specialtybottle.com. They have a pretty good selection of sizes, and they have both clear and solid lids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
