  • @thedoubleboiler6971
    @thedoubleboiler6971 Před 2 lety +3

    Thank you for sharing and in return, the easiest way that I can think of, to separate the mold from the container, would be to use needle nose/ regular pliers, with rubber tips as to not damage the mold.
    You should be able to grip it, pull, while using another tool (maybe made of wood or hard rubber preferred) to hold the bottom part of the jar and it should come off without much fuss.
    I also want to advise in getting a power sander and you could even make a holding device for the sander to turn it upside down and this way, you can work on the jars from the top.

    Hi. Really nice work with great results. I have had success releasing concrete from silicone moulds before by blowing compressed air down the inside of the form. I think this would work well for you too. Try to get a small jet of high pressure air down between the concrete and the mold.
    I hope it helps

    Great video and beautiful candles. Thanks for sharing. What is the name of the printer that printed the logos ?

      I used my printer to print the dust covers -Laser Printer: amzn.to/2U4dLE8
      And my Cricut machine to cut them out. -Cricut Machine amzn.to/2Tu7bWt

    Would love a tutorial on how you made your labor toppers. They’re a good idea.

    Love this video and your vessels are beautiful. You have inspired me to do the same. Question, since I have never worked with concrete before, what is the approx weight of each? I just wonder as I know concrete is a heavy material. Thanks!

      Hi Debra, thank you so much! The weight is between 9.5oz to 10oz and with the lid it's about 12.5oz. Hope this helps :). Thanks for watching and best of luck!

    Thank you so much for this vid!! So informative. Do you think it’s more cost effective to make your own vessels if you can or buy them?

      It really depends on how you look at it all. It is very time consuming making them but by buying them, it saves time and may save money if it's something you don't like spending your time doing and if you don't enjoy it.

      Thanks for watching! I believe they are no longer in business. I'm still looking for another company that will make them.
