Today at Badgerworks, we try our hand at something we've never done before - candle making. We have a bunch of old, burned out candles so, rather than throwing them out, I decided to see if I could take the remaining wax, add a new wick or three and make some new ones without burning down the workshop...

The wick set I used:
