Summary

This is a mould for a dodecahedron candle.
NOTE* REQUIRES ROTATING BEFORE PRINTNG
I printed the two parts together with 5 walls and 0% infill.

The model was designed without a wick hole, with the intention to drill to size after..
NOTE* if you print this with less than 100% infill the base will have an area for wax to enter inside the body of he mould... As I did, meaning some wax was wasted 'priming' the mould (as the entire base filled itself with wax). Since then it has been re-used and works well.

Creating a hole with software would be reccomended, allowing the slicer to create a walled section.

Used a long thin blue tack sausage to create a seal between the parts before pouring.

*Making and pouring boiling wax can be dangerous - Please take care! :)
