Candle Molds

thingiverse

It all began with a design for a custom fuse holder - both bottom and top components were crafted specifically for a poly carbonate tube. Next, I envisioned creating walls with unique finishes that would set them apart. As the project evolved, I started to imagine even larger designs... After printing, some additional work is required to achieve a smooth finish. Since I intentionally designed the parts to fit together snugly, you'll need to perform some sanding and trimming. Key takeaways from my experience: - Be cautious not to overheat the candle wax, as it will soften your printed mold and compromise its ability to hold the wax in place. - Pour the layers gradually, about 1-2 cm at a time, allowing each layer to solidify before adding the next one. - Can you see how these two tips are interconnected?
