Kay Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I poured this today. It actually came out pretty good. I had some left over from months ago cause i was getting frustrated with the soy. I decided to try it again & WOW! It came it came out pretty good. I have to take the heat gun the top cause of some cracks, but other then that..I am impressed. Can anyone tell me why the tops crack like that..It use to only crack around the wick, but for some reason this time it cracked all over the top..no big deal, but why does it do that? Thanks for lookingKayP.s. I only had these wicks which would have been to small for this container, so wicked wicked with 2 of them. I wicked this way and not sure if it was a good idea..wondering about other corners not getting enough melt pool. Agree? Wicks were HTP-62's..All I had for Soy.

Kaybee23 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Sometimes mine crack in the winter, if I use too much beeswax in them. I have to back down on it in the winter and I up it back up in the summer. Not sure about the wicking, if those 2 wicks are gonna do the trick. Myself, I would try a large single wick. But if that is all you have, and it is poured already, I would give it a try and see what it does. That is what learning to make candles is all about right? Testing and experimenting to see what works and what doesn't. Best of luck to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwin Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 My containers seem to crack in the winter too. Nothing a heat gun can't fix. The color of your candles is beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
