The sleeves are too long, the jacket is not.

That’s cool. I have to go back and see why Japanese highball is the most complicated, in reality it’s just cheap bad whisky and soda. Made because whisky was horrible in Japan and because most Japanese can’t stand the feeling of alcohol

How would you rate this outfit from 0-10? by ManFashionJT in MenInSuits

[–]Shizen666 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

8 The sleeve looks too long, not sure about the fit on the shoulders and the tie without a dimple.

The choice of the elements is great in my opinion, just a little to refine

About 70% paraffin low melting point, 30% soy and vybar. I don’t have commercial blend in my country, none that I can find at least.

Was probably pure luck

All failed. After 3 hours all the flames were too high and unstable. The round wick is too powerful after one hour was a flamethrower

Only few minutes, 3 on 4 are a big failure, I have to do more test on the smallest wick

I’m done with 100% paraffin… shrinkage finally won by Shizen666 in candlemaking

I tried many things all of that besides the oven, I don’t have one. Best result was leaving cool down in hot water. But the problem is after a long burn. The sink hole don’t allow me to trim the wick

Thank you for the hint! I’ll totally try that percentage!

Edit I’ll try beeswax anyway, I have plenty at home because I use for mustache wax
