Awhile back, I remember reading a thread about foiling your wicks to avoid soot marks and the shinyness on the foil looks cool. Well, after trying it..maybe I just suck, but the foil always comes off after not even a session or two of spinning. On top of that..when I put my gear in my bucket, the foil has a tendency to want to come off...Anyone have any helpful ideas?? (:------------------ [PLUR]-=Crazy Raver Dude=-

wasn't that for when twirling without fire? So you aren't spinning black sooty things.

I use plastic sandwich bags with twist-ties. Works well for me.

Oh yeah, I guess you could put tinfoil and then sandwich bags with twist ties. I usually don't worry about "looking cool" if I'm just practicing.If you really want to look cool, try lighting them on fire!
