Candle Maker conserves wax, pleases the Quakers

candle maker

This here is what we call an Amish Gadget. It's not exactly high tech for you and me, but for those lovable luddites it'll blow their freaking minds. It's a device for creating new candles from the stumpy remains of old candles. So if you've been lighting your house without electricity or performing Wiccan rituals, you can take the candles you have around your house, melt them down, and create new candles. Now that's using the whole Buffalo, so to speak. Wait, I think I'm mixing up my cultural metaphors here. In any case, you can pick this guy up for $35 online. So the Amish won't be able to find it. Oh, the irony.

WTF why in the world is the title "Candle Maker conserves wax, pleases the Quakers" and you go on and talk about Amish. I don't get it, Quakers are not Amish. I would like an explanation of your using the two here together. And the sites linked here don't meantion the Quakers or the Amish, so this must be your religous/ cultural misuse.
