My girlfriend her mother is into molding her own candle's. So i thought it would be a cool idea to design a heart mold. And with valentine getting close, I made it a heart mold.
Mind your tention ! Before you poor in wax you need to clamp the two peices tougether, with a C clamp or something. If you overtighten it, you will make it bend. (Print it with higher infill / bottom layers if this is a problem) You should also use some metal plates to destribute the force on them (of the C clamp).

How I Designed ThisI would print it laying on it's back with support for the little funnel on top.
V1.2 Notes.
Someone pointed out, it might be a good idea to add a hole for the wick. After watching a candle making tutorial (i never made a candle myself), I came up with these changes.
Feet added so you can use a rubber peice and a washer around the wick.
- Hole added for the wick.
- New fillet edges
Part 1 whole diameter increased with 0.25mm, too insure the other half fitting without much sanding V1.3 notes
Changed small pegs to stronger ones
