  1. all are 3x3 Those are the originals and I don't burn them for the most part. I make regular candles to sometimes. I am kind of addicted to custom creating for now. I want to keep pushing further and further. Not sure myself for now at least. Addicted to 3D printing itself.
  2. Thank you, working on coming up with new candle designs.
  3. I finished my first year of candle making in June of 2019, but here are some of my creations during that time and a bit afterward. I'm still learning myself, but this is my first year of candle making and a bit after that.
  4. maybe get glass jars that fit inside the aluminum can - upside down (obviously). You could reuse the glass jars each time to and never have to buy other stuff for the most part. Probably use them 10-15 times at least before having to even think about buying something new if not 50 times. Not sure if selling them. Otherwise glass jar upside down should work just fine I would think.
  5. Someone is requesting a link to be able to download something off another website. Can I send them the link? It's something I created for centering candle wicks.
  6. It's a free download. I don't want to post the link and self advertise and get banned though. So I really can't help you out for now unfortunately.
  7. When I make candles in jars using soy I use a heat gun to go around the top. Got a $20 one off a website and had it shipped to myself. As long as you keep it even and go around the top in a circular motion it's pretty easy to do and/or use. Not sure on the scents though and how that will effect it though.
  8. This is my old design and/or first design I ever finished. I currently have a second design and I use that one currently. Mostly the pins are easier to work with and have grooves in them and are flatter. 1. Left - these drop down with the wick inside them. 2. Center piece is for measurements and such. 3. The pins on the right go on the four sides (obviously). I've been working on the pins to make them easier to hold with my hands and I will be making them different sizes. Basically will fit any jar size and/or etc when I'm finished.
  9. I 3D printed a tool that allows me to center basically any wick in any jar for the most part. If you have a 3D printer available or know anyone that does might want to check that route out.
  10. Thanks for the help. I ordered 60 lbs of IGI 4625. Should be here in a few days.
  11. Where do you buy 4725? I am finding 4625 online. I can't find 4725. I also found 4794 candle wax, but no 4725.
  12. I create my own custom candle molds. All of my candles are free standing as I don't keep the candles in the molds when I'm finished. Anyone know of a very hard candle wax or one that is harder than IGI 4826 that is currently on the market?
  13. I'm looking for something that won't fall apart and is very strong for the most part and I usually only add white coloring to it for now. Anyone have any ideas / tips / recommendations for now? What's the best candle wax for tarts/molds in 2019?
