Wavy Candlestick

thingiverse

My wife received some metal candle holders on her birthday, designed for empty wine bottles. I took matters into my own hands and created these custom candlesticks instead. If you can't find the original holders, I've shared a printable replica that you can assemble by gluing or screwing together. I generated the mesh for this model using mathematical equations and programming skills. Specifically, the 7 layers are surfaces of polar functions that I created in Blender 3D with a Python script I wrote myself. Caution is advised! Most plastics used in 3D printing are flammable, so use these candlesticks with caution. Alternatively, you can opt for candle holders made from wood - it's safer to test them first.
