try useing towel or denim instead of kevlar. this site has good instructions on making several different types of wicks. kevlar is a lot more durable than just about anything else you can find, but towel and denim certainly do the job if you don't mind replacing them periodically

ps. the mods are going to yell at you because of the swearing in your signature, you might want to change it

thanks!! I`ve just changed my signature. I was wondering before whether this forum is controlled for swearing

most of what you need to know should be under articles, up at the top.

Go here:
https://www.firechains.com
And click the link that says "Construction Guide" At the bottom of that page, there are instructions on how to make towel wicks complete with illustrations.

Let's turn those old bridges we crossed into ashes.
We'll blaze a new trail,
and torch the rough patches.
