beehive candle

thingiverse

I had a block of beeswax and wanted to craft a candle with an authentic beehive design. I created the model in OpenSCAD, knowing that I could easily adjust the dimensions if needed, but encountered some issues with my code that were causing me problems. For now, I had enough wax for a candle about 4 inches tall, so I tweaked the settings until it worked at that size and called it good. I figured the shape would be easier to remove from the mold if there were three distinct parts to the mold, which is how I designed it.
