Iniciamos los pasos de la siguiente manera, cortamos un trozo de pabilo con la ayuda de las tijeras, debe ser mas largo que el tubo de cartón, de esta manera tendremos sobrante de mecha por arriba y por abajo, lo cual nos facilitará el trabajo luego.

We start the steps as follows, we cut a piece of wick with the help of scissors, it must be longer than the cardboard tube, this way we will have wick left over at the top and at the bottom, which will facilitate our work later.

Segundo paso, fijaremos con un poco de cinta adhesiva el trozo de mecha sobre la superficie que nos servirá de base para nuestra vela, de esta forma al vaciar la parafina la mecha estará centrada.

Second step, we will fix with some adhesive tape the piece of wick on the surface that will serve as a base for our candle, in this way when emptying the kerosene the wick will be centered.

Tercer paso, pegamos con silicón caliente el tubo de cartón y la base de cerámica, nos aseguraremos de sellar muy bien la base del tubo de cartón, para que al momento de verter la parafina no se salga por la parte inferior.

Third step, we glue the cardboard tube and the ceramic base with hot silicone, we will make sure to seal the base of the cardboard tube very well, so that when pouring the kerosene does not come out from the bottom.

Cuarto paso, llenamos con parafina casi hasta el tope el recipiente de metal y lo pondremos en la hornilla de la cocina, encendemos el fuego y esperamos unos minutos para que se derrita a fuego bajo, también podemos derretir la parafina en baño de maría, solo que tardará un poco más de tiempo.

Fourth step, fill the metal container almost to the top with kerosene and put it on the stove, turn on the fire and wait a few minutes for it to melt over low heat, we can also melt the kerosene wax in a water bath, but it will take a little longer.

Quinto paso, apagamos el fuego y esperamos unos cuantos minutos para que baje la temperatura del liquido.

Fifth step, turn off the heat and wait a few minutes for the liquid to cool down.

msg158335624-7784.jpg

Sexto paso, sujetamos el recipiente de metal con la ayuda del alicate para no quemarnos y vertemos la cera de parafina sobre nuestro molde fabricado con anterioridad.

Sixth step, we hold the metal container with the help of the pliers so as not to burn ourselves and pour the kerosene wax over our previously made mold.

msg158335624-7783.jpg

Séptimo paso, estiramos un poco la mecha hacia arriba, al mismo tiempo que la centramos y fijamos con la ayuda de una pinza para ropa, luego dejamos que la cera se enfríe un poco más, aproximadamente unos 5 minutos.

Seventh step, stretch the wick upwards a little, while centering it and fixing it with the help of a clothespin, then let the wax cool down a little more, approximately 5 minutes.

msg158335624-7782.jpg

Octavo paso, para acelerar el proceso de enfriamiento sumergimos el molde en agua, evitando que entre el agua en este ultimo, lo dejaremos allí hasta que solidifique lo suficiente, aproximadamente 30 minuto. Si notamos que la cera se compacta mucho y vemos que se forman agujeros en la cera, podemos derretir un poco mas de cera y verter la cantidad suficiente hasta llegar al tope del molde.

Eighth step, to accelerate the cooling process we submerge the mold in water, avoiding the water to enter the mold, we will leave it there until it solidifies enough, approximately 30 minutes. If we notice that the wax becomes very compact and we see that holes form in the wax, we can melt a little more wax and pour enough to reach the top of the mold.

Noveno paso, una vez que ya ha solidificado nuestra vela, la sacamos del agua y retiramos la pinza que sujeta la mecha.

Ninth step, once our candle has solidified, we take it out of the water and remove the clamp that holds the wick.

Y finalmente para el décimo paso, desmoldamos nuestra vela, cortamos la mecha sobrante, revisamos que no tenga agujeros inesperados y si lo deseamos podemos suavizar los bordes irregulares con la ayuda de un cuchillo o un encendedor.

And finally for the tenth step, we unmold our candle, cut the excess wick, check for unexpected holes and if we wish we can smooth the irregular edges with the help of a knife or a lighter.

Y así se verá nuestra vela ya encendida, lista para alumbrar nuestros espacios en las noches oscuras sin electricidad.

And this is how our candle will look already lit, ready to light our spaces in the dark nights without electricity.

The operators doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved in the same discord groups around @fyrstikken and friends. Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. Shes in some groups with seemingly detached characters that dont even acknowledge the others in the group, looking oddly staged. She starts projects and does nothing with it or the delegations after its used to sway people. Like @steempowertwins does<------fake along with her @teamgood <------fake. No substance in her comments and has a following that adores her for what? Life coach she is not nor is she insightful with any meaningful skills to follow. Ruler of pixie dust maybe? I would like for someone to show me but probably wont out fear maybe? @fyrstikken groups around him down voted me into censored and not viewable on my accounts as soon I told what they were doing.
I cant prove @battleaxe is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing V2K because she cant and could care less. I guarantee she knows this is going around and still wont prove it because she cant. Many of us here can prove what they have been doing to survive the past 5 years. What does she live off of? It definitely isnt in public view here.

I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have been trying to kill me using RNM with applied V2K mental games while revealing as many accessories to the crime as they can. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. Pretty serious accusations to just blow off and leave the crypto community hanging in fear of this danger.

They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome. They should start by looking at the communications between the top witnesses of Hive and the connection to @fyrstikken groups. Google his fucking name and see where his other interests lie around at least once maybe? The connections between @fyrstikken groups and all the exchanges built for Hive? Bet that would reveal some crazy ball less nutty shit. Homeland security should start preparing for their own incarcerations seeing how sloppy this was done. Patriot act my ass. Think we are really fools? Bad position your not getting out of. Dont be last to blow the whistle. Who will protect you?

People in and around @fyrstikkens groups are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 long torturing years and counting. That is a long time to wait for someone to die.

What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and why nothing is being done. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control that have ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers prevented from telling the truth from being treated as criminals? Not to mention civilians we let our leaders treat the same way. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism-terrorism
