jackbenimble Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I'm sorry to post another video but I just couldn't resist. It's a little boring but watch it the whole way through. This is just incredible how they are pouring these candles. Some wicks are not centered. Maybe they go back and fix them. Idk! Would be interesting to hear what y'all think ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbrook Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I just got done watching it and I am kinda speechless right now. WOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 That's pretty cool. I saw something like that on a behind the scenes at Kindle Candle. Imagine the output with that thing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bottlecrafters Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Wonder how much $$ one of those will set you back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B@BlissStreet Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Doesn't that kind of negate the hand-poured or hand-made craft/artisan premise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaturallyTru Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 The first batch of votives shown had wick pins. The second batch did not. ???? I think this gadget makes candlemaking look boring. But I guess if you do that volume it would make your life easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacktieaffair Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I saw that a while back........ Im still just as speechless now , as then...... and that's pretty sad when I don't make candles, and I can see the " Oh no you didn't's " in this !

Judy, USMC Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Personally, that "ding" every few seconds would get on my nerves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I suspect that all of us wonder if we will cross the line from small time hand crafters to big time manufacturers? The bottom line would be to produce a quality product at an affordable price. I make container candles and they are hand-made but its not something you would call artistic. Pillars and specialty candles require artistic talent IMHO. I don't think there is a machine that produces a unique one of a kind item that makes an artistic statement....but I could be wrong.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in KY Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 $20,000 when I was looking. And it doesn't heat the wax, just keeps it at a certain temp, once melted. But it is cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would probably grow to not even hear it, much like people do when the battery in their smoke detector runs low and it starts beeping. Someone will come into your house and ask about the beeping noise and you'll say, "What beeping noise?", same with the DING! ...........DING! ............DING! "What ding?" LOL!
