Has it ever happened to you that you want to light up the darkness on a cold winter night, but found that normal candles are too boring? Well, look no further - these candle casts will allow you to make your own, much more awesome candles. Use them yourself, give them away as gifts, or even - if your friends are more into candle-making than you are - print these casts and give them to your friends as gifts instead.
The idea is that you print both halves, stick them together with a rubber band or two, affix a wick from the hole at the bottom to the hole at the top, seal the bottom hole with tape, and then pour molten candle material (wax or whatever else) into the top hole- Allow it lots of time to cool as the core will cool much slower than the exterior, for obvious reasons. Then split the cast, extract your candle, cut off the bottom plug so it stands level, and light it up.
This is a work-in-progress and I haven't yet tried printing these or making candles with them. I've notic
