So say hello to the silicone mould I found on eBay for £24.99
So it's arrived I also ordered some pre made/ waxed wicks for something like £4 delivered for 100 ( 6" wicks )
So first thing the silicone mould didn't come drilled so I used a 2mm drill ..
Then used some long forceps to push the wick through the hole
Then pulled roughly level so the metal base of the pre made wicks sat level with the top / bottom of the mould and first attempt I used a bit of stiff plastics to hold them central cut at equal spacing (this has melted ) I plan on getting a bit of aluminium from work and cutting slits in it for next time..
I set up a bains Marie using the wifes best pan

Then poured the wax carefully into the mould having misted the mould interior with silicone spray to make removal easier...
And left to cool
If this works well I'll order some bees wax
