They sent me the links to the correct wick setters for each of my vessels. And they were super nice and friendly about it.

The wick holders are fantastic. I do, however, need to order custom setters. I use the round, low profile metal wood wick clips, and they don’t fit down the tube of the setter and I have to hold them in place from the top with tension. It actually slows me down, so I need to place a new custom order. Their Customer Service is AMAZING and they are incredibly friendly and responsive. Won't use anyone else from here on out...and yes, I geeked out seeing my own name customized on the setters! Love it!

Have been using them for a few weeks now after seeing you use them on some videos. Coming from the easy wick setter, that one had too much play and never seemed to fit the jars snug. These are a gamechanger for sure. Ease of use, consistency and cost make them a no brainer purchase and likely one of the only things I can safely say I don't have to worry about functioning properly when making candles.

[@BlackTieBarn]

Absolutely agree! Way more consistent and accurate. There is something to be said for a single tool that can fit multiple jars. But it doesn't fit super well like these do!

Is there a video on what you use to pour your wax. I've hit my wick holder with wax during my pouring process. It's ready to clean up, but it's time-consuming.

If hand pouring I put them on after. Much easier. Less/no mess. If using my pumper for very large batching it's a small nozzle and I put then on before or after. doesn't matter in that case.

[@steveweis1052]

Last time I used my wick centering tool after I poured the wax, the wick sticker/wick came off the bottom of the jar. But I will try it again if it's easier. I'm going to try the Norden products though to see if that helps me. I'm actually blind in 1 eye, so hitting dead center is hard for me so that's another reason I'm going to try the products.

@Sheri T oh I see. Sorry didn't see that they were from Amazon. Yah that will be tougher to nail down as amazon isn't necessarily a specific or consistent supplier of candle jars.

I contacted the company and they confirmed, no preheating the jars and no using foil pans. I now am back to massive sink holes and double pours, is there any other way I can prevent these massive sink holes without using these two methods.

It really is cool what you can do with 3D printing. Whoever did the design work did an absolutely fantastic job, both in terms of function and ease of printing/customizing. Very reasonable pricing, too. I would advise you, though, that if they are saying that they are using a biodegradable plant based plastic, that would mean the products are made from PLA. PLA is great stuff and a staple of the 3D printing world, but anyone that tries to tell you that it is in any way green is either lying to you or doesn't know what they are talking about. If you want to know more, the info regarding its sustainability and degradability is widely available online from a legion of reputable sources.
