wooden soap molds
Candle Wax or soap making expert?
I need to pour alot of wax into a wooden bowl… to basically make a structure I can make a latex mold of.
Lets see if I can make this make sense. I need to end up with a rather large round object made of resin. So I bought a bowl that would work perfectly. Problem is I need to make a mold of the interior of the bowl with a rubber mold compound. That isn’t going to work. So I’m going to fill it up with wax. pop the wax out, and make a mold of the bottom of the wax… which would then be the same shape as the interior of the bowl.
Problem is I’ve never used wax before, so I was hoping some candle makers or something of that nature could help me. How do or what do you use to get wax to come out easily a mold? A wooden mold?? So basically what is a good mold release. Any insight could be helpful.
You can use oil or liquid soap to help release the mold, but I’d try getting some thin plastic, saran wrap type stuff, putting that on your bowl, then pouring, it should release easy, but could cause wrinkles in the surface. If the bowl isn’t something you need to keep another option would be to make a plaster cast of the bowl, and then pour your latex/resin into the plaster cast. Make sure you put shims in the plaster so you can get it apart somehow, but plaster is fun to work with and very true to the original form. If you have a decent art supply store, not crafts, like Micheals, but art supply, they should be able to help you more. Good luck. I’m curious as to what you’re making.

Tips For Maintaining Your Wooden Swing Set
Children have always been fascinated by swings and swing sets. Today, there is a wide range of swing sets to choose from ranging from plastic coated swings, metal swing sets and wooden swingsets.
It is better to buy your swingset based on the age of your child. This is because the child should not only be comfortable in the swing; the swing should also be comfortable to the child’s body. While metal swings are long lasting, there is the chance of the swing rusting over time.
However in the case of wooden swingsets, you face minimal maintenance requirements. There is also a great variety of wooden swingsets for you to choose from, based on quality and timber species. To ensure longevity of your wooden swing, it is important that you clean it regularly.
Washing tips for your wooden swing
Keep a lookout for bugs and other outdoor structures as some bugs like termites, can severely damage the swing to beyond repair. Moreover, wasps and hornets may make hives in dark places, and cause danger to kids playing on the swing.
To clean your swing set, you have to first spray it with a garden hose to get rid of accumulated dirt, leaves and even dirty water. You may need pressure washing to get rid of stubborn bird droppings; however, do so while making sure you don’t damage the wood.
This done, most people use a wire brush to get rid of the swing’s grime. This is not suggested as it only digs the wood, causes splinters and creates crevices in the wooden swingset for the sun and rain to rot. On the contrary, you have to use a brush with soft bristles with soap and water to remove mold, mildew and dirt while brushing in circular motion.
Start cleaning from eye level
Though there are special cleaners and solvents to use to clean wooden swingsets, the most effective cleaning solution is simple soap and warm water. It is better to use a strong cloth or soft brush than a sponge to clean in circular motion.
When you clean your swing, it is better to clean it by starting at eye level and working down the structure. You will be sure you don’t miss any areas by cleaning the entire area in a systematic manner. Moreover, by working from the top, you will be sure that dirt does not flow to the areas that have already been washed.
Let the swing dry thoroughly
After cleaning with soap solution, you have to once again hose down the wooden swingset. The next thing to do is to let the swing set dry in the sun. This ensures that it stays clean for a longer time.
Make sure that no kids play on the wooden swingset till it dries completely. This is not only to ensure that the swingset thoroughly dries, but also because there is the possibility of kids kicking up mud which will end up sticking on the freshly cleaned, wet wooden swingset.
