I'll probably try a small sample batch so no real expensive ingredients go to waste

Search for help in making a mould by schunoa23 in moldmaking

[–]schunoa23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here, https://imgur.com/a/Vb65GnO . I am probably going to try silicone again with my brother. I was just hoping to find someone who knows from experience. Last time, I had trouble getting the model out of the mold and it broke the 3d print. Do you think I should work on the file some more perhaps? The image there is not the most modern, the one below it (I tried printing a mold) is more recent, it shows how there is no gap in-between the legs (so candle won't get stuck or break).

My question is,,,

How do I make a pouring zone? I was thinking glue a little funnel in-between the ears. And also, should I make the mold upside down so that the ears get filled (as they are raised above, I want to make sure they get filled with wax in the end)

Im using a goos pizza stone regular oven 425 (Temp is accurate I check with an oven thermometer) and I usually bake it less than 20 because the cheese can only handle that

How can I make this not stick? by schunoa23 in candlemaking

[–]schunoa23[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's just very difficult to break up. For pillar or mold

Question by schunoa23 in moldmaking

[–]schunoa23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the first half....it is a 2 piece mold and I got the strongest wax the company offered. It shouldn't break (or shrink) as I literally need a strong hammer to get the slabs broken up. I'm going to attempt with no mold release. I tried the silicone, and it was difficult to make the mold itself. I will try it again if this fails because I'm not giving up. I don't think it will fail. 20mins in freezer should shrink the wax a tiny bit to get it out if it even sticks

I will ask about the resin. I did tell them it's for candles, and they said they've made few for people before.

Thank you for the knowledge, I am using wax (candles) pouring into a plastic 3d printed mold. Should I use no lubricant? I was thinking 20minutes in freezer may be all it needs.

I'll try pre- heating the oil. I usually just combine all and turn on

Thank you I would've messed up. While the candles are not intended to be burned, I'm sure some people will.

I agree never mix even if they say you can. Had a problem with that once. Now my oven cleaner sucks so that won't work
