Pam W Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 found this while browsing antique stores & since it was marked "MOLD", I just had to buy it. It's 3x7 1/2"...is it a candidate for 3 wicks or 4 and any suggestions on what type/size wicks to start with? I've only done one 3 wicker so don't really know where to start. Will have to be creative with design so the finished candle doesn't look like jello!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfrie Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Not sure on the wick issue, but I bet that clear pillar wax would look great with that mold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsvlbrat Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Can't help with the wick but wanted to say that's a cool mold! Can't wait to see the finished product Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonrose64 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Depends on what wax you will be using..I'm with Ash, LX wicks are great...I use Lx for almost everything... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmism Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 3x7.5.... it appears to have about a 1" taper (the base is 2"?)seems like a good candidate for a single 3.5"-4" pillar wick. depending on wax type i like cotton braid 24ply for smaller 2.5" or 3" if i have a good wax otherwise I like to overwick with 30ply. others i would consider HTP 93 or LX-21 throu Lx-24 depending on wax and prefrence for overwicking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
