Billie Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Gorgeous!!! I wonder if something hot would skewer the hole without breaking the candle. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Crazzie - I had a problem breaking candles with a drill until I tried a power screwdriver with a drill chuck attachment and a small 1/16 bit for the first hole. Now I very seldom break a candle. I found 2 things cause the candle to break; the drill bit is turning to fast and too much down pressure on the drill. The power screwdriver turns at a slower speed, you can hold it in your hand at a more natural angle, which causes less down pressure. After the first hole with the small bit, enlarging the hole to the exact wick size with another bit or a hot rod is simple. Possibly info that you already knew or more than you wanted to know, thought i would pass along for whatever benefit it might provide or space it might take up.

ladysj Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I love it I haven't figured out exactly how to get the tops that high. I always come out with a mess. I have tired piping them on maybe my wax wasn't set up enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
