I liked the idea of lighting one point and having the wick branch off to spread the flame. However, these candles were difficult to produce by a traditional mold and required a two part process. The negative space of the wireframe was 3D printed to produce clean edges, and used to create a mold out of OOMOO, a silicon mixture. The hot wax was then poured into the OOMOO mold and a cap was used to form the wax into the negative space. This process was repeated twice, and the two sides were joined together to produce the wireframe of a twelve sided polyhedron.
