Getting Things Together
Here's What you need to make this:
1 Galvanized Steel pipe 1" x 12"
1 Steel 1" to 1/2" Reducer
1 Steel Galvanized Hex Bolt 1/2" x 3"
7 Cotton tube socks
1 Pair of sisscors
1 Bottle of Kerosine or Paraffin wax oil
1 Galvanized Steel pipe 1" x 12"
1 Steel 1" to 1/2" Reducer
1 Steel Galvanized Hex Bolt 1/2" x 3"
7 Cotton tube socks
1 Pair of sisscors
1 Bottle of Kerosine or Paraffin wax oil
Cutting the Socks
1st you will want to lay the sock flat and cut off the neck strip making sure to get the frill as well and keeping a straight line as you cut (this is very important later on)
Next you want to cut the neck in half than again down the sides so you get 4 little squares
Keep doing this till you have 3" worth stacked tall

Securing Your Fabric
Now that you have you squares take your scissors and poke a hole in the center of each square
Next you want to slide the square on the bolt till it's at the end
When stacking the fabric make sure they all match up and there is no criss-cross as this will cause oil to drip and make it burn faster
Once you have placed all your fabric on the bolt go ahead and screw on the reducer (don't glue in place as you want to reuse this)
