Part 3 of a 3 part series detailing how to make flat wicks for oil lanterns. Apologies for some of the editing; I'm having a bit of trouble with my equipment at the moment.
Instead of using tweezers to get the top of your wick wet, just extend your wick in the burner really high, dip the end in that you would light, then lower your wick and reattach the burner. A little easier.
