AnjieBurdett Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Is there any secret way of getting the bottom on a candle level??I've tried trimming with a sharp knife and then rubbing on the bottom of a hot pan, but they still always sit wonky!! I need a sure fire way of getting them level. Anyone?Do I have to do the obvious and buy a spirit level LOL.Anjie,x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I use a level...But there is a way to get them level while they are still in the mold... If you do a search for it you may be able to find it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnjieBurdett Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Thanks for getting me to search - found JUST what i was looking for! This is the kind of 'secret' i was after LOL now i'm off to find me some angle iron . http://www.candletech.com/cgi-local/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=Discussions;action=display;num=1105871662;start=0#0Levelling while still in the mold is an excellent idea but not always good for me as I used plastic moulds sometimes and they have little bumps on the top edge to hold the wick bar steady, and I wouldn't want to melt them.Anjie,x.

jillgunter Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 It was posted not to long ago about this. Someone posted that they level it while still in the mold. They basically fill it up to/over the rim a bit. I quit with pillars since I could never level them. Might try again with this method.
