Something different Candle repair
:popcorn: Yeah,I know they`re cheap.But are`nt we all tinkers?And cheap to boot?Got a candle that has a nice aroma,so I lit it.Mickey mouse wick install.Only about 2" of wick.My fix was to find an old set of sneaker laces.The old cotton style.Used a drill to finger twist a hole in the wax the depth of the candle(Ball shaped)to the bottom of the wax ball.Cut a suitable length of the lace and stuffed it in the drilled hole.Heated wax till the new wick was soaked,and then lit it.Works like a champ.
The flame just fascinates Morris kitty,but he is smart enough to keep his distance.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Something different Candle repair
Around my family I’m well known for repurposing everything. I built my reloading station out of trash. Son in law trying to be funny asked me if I had a use for an old 8 track deck from the seventies. I said sure, absolutely!
I gutted the plywood box and used it to house the scale and dies in use, along with calipers & micrometer. I can find a use for just about anything!
Oh, and sandpaper—use horsetail weed. It’s full of silica!
