Default My Greatest Creation Yet

Here it is, the Fat Candle.

Over the last 2 weeks, I poured all the bacon grease and other misc fat into a soup can with a wick in it. I filled it up today, and started her up. This is the ultimate aroma therapy for the bathroom.

You should make one.

yeah, I thought of doing a writeup, but not until I saw that it worked, I'll do one on the next candle. Should be a bit more fancy.

Right now it does, cause the top layer is bacon fat, but I expect it to go through stages as the new layers are hit.

becarefull not to let that thing catch on fire.
you should use a quarter size of sheet metal to seperate the flame itself and the grease.(the string sticks throught the plate)

it should be fine... a grease fire would be sick though.
