Pavel the Ghost Candle Mold

thingiverse

The thrilling exploits of Pavel are taking a new form - a candle mold! This is part of the Halloween 2019 theme, a collection that can be found right here. Creating one is straightforward: Get your hands on some source candle wax and wick (you can melt store-bought candles for both) Print all parts using PETG or similar high-temperature plastic Insert the wick into the slot Secure the mold with the two rings and seal the gap between the halves with tape, etc. Melt the wax to around 70 degrees Celsius Cast the candle and let it cool before separating the mold Enjoy the spooky ambiance of ghostly candlelight! Some waxes shrink when cooled, so you may want to fill in the cavity that forms. Trim the wick before this for a clean bottom, which can be leveled by melting off excess wax with a hot surface.
