4 ways to make Finnish candle

With any method Finnish candle made with his own hands from chocks , sometimes replaced with block logs .Acceptable use small stumps , if it takes only one scrap timber.Combustion duration depends on the length and diameter of the preforms.

Method 1 Candle Wax wick

• combustion Duration: 30 minutes.
• Production time: 20 minutes.

Tools and materials:

• drill with a drill 20-30 mm;
• saw (manual, electric or diesel engine);
• sawhorse for sawing;
• Lighter;
• block candle;
• block the larger diameter to the counterweight;
• paraffin or wax;
• paper or newspaper.

sequence manufacturing

1. In both chocks are drilled from one side of the hole diameter of a stick or branch, of which they are connected.Then the connected parts are stacked on the box.Counterweight helps make Finnish candles with your own hands without the risk of injury, carefully.
   
   
2. chock candle sawn crosswise cuts no more than 2/3 of the length of the workpiece. Tip: not do deep propyl, if you want to increase the burning time.
   
3. preform separated from the counter and set up the saw cut.
   
4. Paraffin ignited;melt coated inner walls and bottom of the chump.
   
5. On the strip of paper folded in half (as long as the depth of cut of 4-5 cm) thick layer of poured wax chips along the entire length, then gently fold, forming the future wick.
   
6. gently without waking paraffin, the wick is inserted into the cut, leaving the outside to 5 cm. You can use a pencil, wire or screwdriver, to simplify the process.
   
7. Fix contiguity wick molten wax.
   

To get the fire burning with vertical enough to set fire to the wick.We recommend installing the Finnish candles away from trees on paved or concrete areas, cleared land, fire-resistant tiles, metal stand, to exclude fire surrounding vegetation.

Method 2: Spark of logs

• Combustion duration: up to 2.5 hours.
• Production time: 7-10 minutes.

Tools and materials:

• ax;
• chump or four logs.

manufacturing sequence

kiss chock split into four equal parts.The logs set vertically in the form of the original chocks.When a Finnish candle is made of finished wood, picked up the logs of the same length and cross section, which together form a solid block.The design provides good air flow, but not resistant to wind.

Method 3: Three chump

• combustion Duration: 7 hours.
• Production time: 5 minutes.

Materials Needed: 3 lumps of the same height.No tools are required.

manufacturing sequence

The easiest way to make your own hands with the Finnish candle burning.Chump are set in a circle with a small gap between them.Then, in an internal "pit" kindle the fire.Unobstructed access of oxygen promotes intense flame, and thanks to the large diameter lengthens the duration of combustion.

generates more heat than other constructions taiga candles.It also provides the greatest stability of the single furnace.Lack (flame can blow out by the wind. Tip: as burning lumps slide toward the center to keep the intensity of the burning

method 4. Primus

• combustion Duration:.. 3 hours
• Production time: 20 minutes
.

Tools and materials:

• ax;
• saw (optional);
• wire;
• chock or more logs

sequence manufacturing

1. chock chop or cut to 4-6 logs can choose..equal length logs from drovnitsy that together they can be folded into a block.
   
2. With central side whittle core chips in such a way that the inside then formed a narrow pit.
   
3. After obstrugivaniya on the well walls make incisions.
   
4. Connect logs wire, shaping the chump.
   
   
5. Inside oven chips fall asleep formed, which was then set on fire.
   

This design provides intense hot flame .In the first two hours after the ignition of a mini-oven can cook, boil water.Optimum dimensions is when lumps length is twice the diameter.You can create mini campfires in height from 20-30 cm.

The design is a vertical furnace pyrolysis combustion .The peculiarity of this type of fire is the simultaneous burning and firewood, and released wood gas.As a result, soot and ash produced less, and flame above the heat transfer.Even the two-hour use of the Finnish candles helps to solve many problems of resettlement and recreation.

Culinary Uses Finnish candles

In the absence of a summer kitchen and in the campaigns of one-off oven is easy to adapt for the following tasks:

• cooking in Kazankov;
• singeing of carcasses of poultry and game;
• boiling water;
• food warming.

Unlike stationary summer kitchen Finnish candle can be used anywhere in the area, take along a picnic or a trip.

Landscape decoration

Mini fires are useful for temporary lighting in dark areas without landscape lighting.They create a warm welcoming atmosphere and can complement the decoration of public recreation areas for special events.Finally, replace the spark street hearths and fireplaces, will help to relax by the fire during the evening recreation.

Repair and construction use

Concentrated burning resulted advantage of using Finnish candles compared to conventional fires in the following works:

• roasting, heating metal;
• melting bitumen roofing material or lump;
• firing and drying a variety of surfaces and workpieces.

easy to manufacture single-use ovens are compact, simple device, intense burning and easy transportation.This enhances the attractiveness of Finnish candles for home or travel use.
