vegetable oil candle.avi

Vegetable (rapeseed) oil burning in a shot glass. I followed the advice from http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-an-oil-burning-candle/. The trick is to use a matchstick as wick. Around it I have "looped" a thin steel wire.

Why did I do this? I have a surf van in which I have an air heater that runs on kerosene. I want to go green with it and therefore I am checking for other alternatives..
