Yes. The recipe worked. My mold sucked, but the parrafin/PE concoction was a success. Both in the oven and with a propane torch.
I just need to increase my PE ratio to make the wax a little tougher.
And about the flashpoint...I reached it...oops.
Now, to make bricks thick enough to make a two part soap mold. Ideally I would like to make two inch thick molds, but I will settle for 3/4" and just make smaller soaps. Any other ideas for the kids to mill in wax?
