How much wax for overpour in a chunk pillar?


Recommended Posts

I want to try making some chunk pillars. I will be using a 2 3/4 x 6 1/2 spiral octagon mold. I realize that after I have stuffed the mold with chunks, I will need much less wax for the overpout than I would for an ordinary pillar, but I was wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark figure as to how much? TIA!

Definately a ballpark, but I would shoot for 2/3, or maybe 3/4 lbs. So hard to guess, so many variables, size of chunks, amount of space between chunks. Trial and error will be your best gauge. Hope that helps.

Cheers
