Skatto Walking on whims... Registered: 12/01/07 Loc: Eastbourne, UK	I can;t use the gold club tactic... my staff just doesn't go out when I try it. I usually wait for one to go out and then smother the other. But by god does my staff burn for a long time... :-\ _________________________ Skatto "Fly like a mouse, Run like a cushion, Be the small bookcase." For goodness sake, don't aggravate the otters!!!

Poje Elusive bearded fire moose Registered: 02/05/07 Loc: Scottsdale, AZ	i put both wicks out before they go out on there own. Helps keep wicking in good shape and cools it down faster _________________________ O.B.E.S.E. Owned by Mynci!

My armpit hugs roughly above the middle of the staff - clear away from burning wickness Doing it with short doubles could prove smellingly hilarious. _________________________ ॐ Owner of burningoftheclavey Owned by Lost83spy

Written by: McAlpine I can;t use the gold club tactic... my staff just doesn't go out when I try it. for it to work you have to spot your wicks, if one seems to start to gutter a bit slow down and wait for the other to catch up, if the same amount of fuel is on each wick they should last about the same time do it when the flame is weak _________________________ see no evil, hear no evil, speak B*llocks Likes tail <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
