Nick, after your visit, I got to thinking about it. I figured if it would run sitting on my vise and heating with the propane torch, then it should run with an alcohol burner.  I put a new wick in and left it long to get more heat to the doorknob.  Worked fine 😁
A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked just fine.
