The furnace needed to be drained. Which meant a trip down to the dark basement with a candle. When I grabbed for the candleholder, an idea hit me.

candle ring

I built the candle ring. I thought a small candle would be easier to wield, so I cut the longer taper down. While cutting the candle I managed to take a slice out of my finger. I used the last bandage, must remember to go out and get some more.

I went down to the basement using the candle ring. While I was draining the furnace, noticed that the candle burnt fine titled sideways. This should have been obvious, since I turn them sideways to light them. As I tilted the candle another idea hit me.

device for the burning of the candle at both ends

I have yet to make the device. I'll need to pick up pieces for it. I'm going to be running around all day tomorrow, so I shall pick up the supplies Thursday.
