The oven was tilted. As the melted fat streamed down to the tilted side we took it out with a very large spoon. From this fat we made tallow candles.
There were tin candle moulds. Through the mould we put a double thread - the double end on top. Through this double end we put a nail. At the pointed end of the mould were the two ends of the thread. These were knotted and the mould stuck down by the pointed end into a hole in the sod of turf.
The fat was melted in an old saucepan poured from this into a jug and from the jug to the mould - being careful that the wick was kept in the middle of the candle.
These little home industries saved the people much money.
