The tube and spiral wicks look the same but are different in size. And yes you have to remove the plastic tubing first. I usually use my thermometer probe to get the wick out. Also you can use the flat wicks with the X-wick clips. Hope this helps.. happy making!!!

Hi Alan! I got the same kit when I started. The x wick clips are indeed interchangeable with the flat wicks as well as the “tube” wicks. The spiral wicks are bigger (wider) than the tube wicks (narrower/tighter coiled). You get 4 of each size in each mini kit. I use x wicks in my 5oz tins. The spiral wicks work with those as well. I use Virgin Coco Soy and a pinch of mica.
@earthglow
@earthglow Год назад
very helpful information!! thank you so much. Do you find the mica helps control the flame? i certainly do but it can easily be overdone and then ya lose the flame entirely.

Hey Allen. I purchase these same wood wicks a while ago…what a pain in the butt with package. As you know in one package it has like 3 to 4 different size and you have to make sure you pair the right size. The color ones burn hotter especially the Raven one. Thank you for all you do for all of us!!!!!
@earthglow
@earthglow Год назад

@joniperiu8308 Год назад
@@earthglow Yes the color ones especially the raven, so I called Makesy and they told me to that the raven and other color burn hotter. I started to practice using woodwicks, however I became frustrated so I had to put it away. I love watching your videos especially with wood wicks. Can you perhaps do more wood wick testing. Many thanks

Hello Allen Thank you for this video!!! I have ordered the black x wicks from makesy. I had the problem of trying to make the wick into an x in the first place. I went onto makesy u tube channel to figure that out. The major problem I had was not having a wick holder to hold the wick in place once I poured my coco apricot creme wax that I got from makesy as well. The candle seemed to burn well but I could see a slight crookness to the wick as it burned!!! Happy Candlemaking!!!

Thanks for your comment, Tamara and very glad you got it figured out! There’s not a whole lot of info on the more exotic wooden wicks but I looks forward to testing them out and letting ya all know what I think. Love and light 🌱💛

Hi Alan I'm in Australia and ordered this kit. The freight forwarder i used said they were dangerous goods. I'm sure they made a mistake.I had to return the kit to makesy😔 Thanks for showing the kit, now I'm going to find a way to get it Australia 😃

@@earthglow wood wicks are sold in Australia but not Makesy. All the wood wicks iv tried in Australia are terrible quality. The same with fragrance oils in Australia. They are really bad. Nothing like what you have in the US.

X wicks are a nightmare. Cutting, testing and the flame is super high if not trimmed right. I only recommend them in tin cans for outdoor use with the Citronella fragrance oils or whatever. That being said, I'm all eyes and ears if someone has any advice to help me make better candles with these x wicks. Thanks

Do you mean any type of container candle? As in any type of wax? If so, I'd say yes but some may produce better results than others.

@@colliemom22 you can absolutely use a woodwick with 464. If you like the flat woodwicks, I’d recommend starting with the .04 booster series.
