Default OIl lamps and candles

I got caught in a power failure a few weeks back since then I have been
messing about with canles and pork fat. It seems you can make a wick
with a piece of wood about the thickness of match. Split it to allow the
oil to rise up the gap.

I poured some fat in a tin of tuna as it is about the best size easily
available. It works very well.

Anyone know how to strain the fat by any chance?
