How do you insert a wick using these molds? It looks as though the examples do not have wicks and that the wick come out on the bottom? Pic plz

Well it not have the holes to put the wick, but what did was, I made a little hole in the bottom of the mold mold and because it is silicone after I passed the wick it it heals by itself. Hope it help. It is really beautiful mold.

I have a Little Wizard. If you are buying it new, it will come with a wick, but there is the possibility of purchasing extra wick material. To light it, there is a small metal lever next to the globe (to the left) which can be pushed down and which raises the base of the globe at the same time, exposing the wick assembly. This lever has a catch which can leave the globe in the up position, until it is put down, allowing the operator two hands to light the flame. To put it out, simply push the lever down when lit and blow out the wick.

They are not attached there is a piece of wire that goes through the wick, make sure you put it on top of the wire toward the lantern so it does not fall off

I didn't have a problem with this. You may want to put them in a cup hold with the tip down for a little while - somewhere like on a table under a lamp (not close) - just to warm them up a bit...... Also with the sorbet set, I found that I had to wipe the tip from time to time. Hope this helps.

You initially lit the wick when it was too close to the wax.... Next time don't put as much wax.... Make sure the wick is about 1/2 inch I believe above the wax when you light it.

I did use a mold release spray, and they were still difficult to remove at times. I've never worked with molds before though, so I don't have any experience to compare it with.

I suggest you contact the maker. I have found it is a simple matter to make my own using clear plastic tubing that fits over the nozzle tightly. I decide how long I want it. I then use some form of heat to melt the end together if I need to develop a smaller or angle opening. I use a scissor or pair of snips to do the shaping. I hope this is helpful. I have not found the plastic nozzles readily available as a separate item to be purchased. Hope this is helpful

But HOW??? None of these things open up, and you can't reach around corners with sponges or hands through these tiny openings. Can someone please explain this to me? Is it a design flaw with literally ALL humidifiers or am I missing something? How do you get into the damn tank to clean the brownish/pinkish sediment that begins to coat them?Thanks!Melissa

Press and hold the metal wick holder down (springy) and twist. It should unscrew then.

I have not done a jello mold yet.. How fun!! I am going to try it:) it hasn't failed me yet. Can't wait; thanks for the idea!

If you put jello on one side, you will get the shape, like an ice cube holder. If you want the 3D effect, then you can set one side first, then the next and hope that they stick together when you clip the already settled side to the liquid side that's about to settle (keeping the second side down, of course; these are not leak-proof!) But the best way would be to keep them open and use them like ice cube holders to get two jello shapes from one mold...

I am using these molds for soap molds but I bake also and would suggest using a "heavier, more dense" cake to use in these molds. Make sure they are cool before you remove. Good luck!

I replaced a wick by trimming a zippo wick. I also trimmed a zippo flint to fit for my true utility firestash keyring lighter

I used a VERY light spray of non stick spray for my FIRST set of molds. It usually takes multiple sets to complete the finished process. After I freeze my mold for 10 minutes I flip them over to wax paper and refill the mold. I'm not sure what brand if melts you're using but I've used Wilton and I've never had an issue. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Have a great day.

I put them under hot running water for a few seconds on all sides and around where the top of the mold meets the cap. Then I firmly hold the mold while gently wiggling the top as I pull. If it doesn't release immediately (don't force it), I run the water over them again for a second or two on all sides again, and that usually works. Then I use the hot water to rinse out the mold, and it's good to go for next time. P.S. I've had mine for almost two years using this method, and have never had one break.

I'm still happy with mine. I have 6 molds (3 sets). Much better than the molds that are just rubber (they end up with flat spots where the sit at the bottom).

Hi, thank you for your query. This tester has not yet a proper casing. We are contacting a local mold factory to see if it is possible to get a casing ready for it. With kind regards, Kevin
