In my opinion, you cant make candles without one. At least not nice looking candles. It also makes cleanup incredibly easy. I got mine at Walmart for about $21. It's been a god send.

God Bless the Heat Gun ! However....I had a couple of geysers when the air bubbles escaped from the bottom...holycow....it spewed was every where and then i had these little tiny pellets of wax all over the place...learned my lesson and held some paper towels over it as the bubbles released. Thanks for the input Fern.

I am a newbie here, and just began making candles this past weekend. I want to make nice candles to sell at a craft show, however I am having a problem with air bubbles in my candles. I have perused the message boards here and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. Is it my wax? I have no idea what brand it is. I bought it at the local Crafts 2000 store for $15.00 a slab Expensive I see now that I have looked at the brands online. I try to pour slowly to avoid trapping air. And this wax I have requires a major repour. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. By the way, these are all container candles. Jenny
