I've tried to make an oil lamp with a small jar, a slice of cork covered with foil and a wick made with thread plied a few times.

The bottom of the jar is filled with water, with rice oil (i.e. an old and slightely rancid oil I had around the house) on top.

That's definitely one of the better ways I've seen of using up otherwise-unpalatable oil!

btw, the jar of course had some food products in it, the wick is made from used basting thread, the cork came from a bottle of wine and the foil is a leftover from a solar panel.

I guess that the only “new” thing is the tap water at the bottom :)
