Burning oxygen and time

Candles have long been a means for gauging time.  As the candle burns down, a certain amount of time has passed-- and if the candle's creator is consistent, a melting candle can translate into minutes, hours.... days.  It's simply a matter of learning to read the height of a candle like the hands on a clock.  
Candle: H 6", W 6".
Metal frame: H 9", W 8".
