mrchips Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Tried to single wick this one, but had to use 8 in the end... It's 24"x7.5"x7.5" and weighs in at 44lbs. There's a 3"x6.5" pillar mold and a votive cup to give some scale.Mr Chips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes a nice change from having to pour the same orders over and over again I guess!Silly ? Me ?? Nah !!Actually, it's for a friend. They live in a big old barn conversion and have a huge inglenook fireplace. They wanted something to put in there during the summer when they're not burning logs. Everything from the shops is a bit small and looks lost.The mould was from someone on ebay, spiritcrafts. They have a few outsized molds for sale, and will custom make them if you wish.This one was plain, no FO, as I had no idea if I'd manage to birth it. It came out OK, so next one gets a shot of FO. Quite a big shot, cos at 5% that'll be 32oz....Mr Chips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
