The wick. A small piece of cotton from a cotton ball. I boiled mine first, a big handful of them. But one cotton ball will rewick many, many atty's, as it takes very little.
Gently pull the cotton straight apart, until it's a little fatter than the diameter of your coil. Wet your finger, and point one end to thread it through the coil.
