When I've done them I find if I cut the blank about 2"longer than the saw bar then cut along the length of the log rather than down the grain as it cuts faster and noodles the shavings rather than fine dust which is good for helping light the candle, either hold in a log jaw or cut a v in a larger block of wood and sit in that.

+1 for this method. Considerably faster & easier on the saw.

Sometimes I will use longer logs cut the slots then cut the candle off & start on the next one as it is slightly quicker than placing each log in the jaws individually. Generally use my Triton SuperJaws with the log jaws fitted on to clamp the logs.
