Hello!
I am currently trying to design a negative-relief candle mold (in two halves) but am not really sure how to do it in freecad. I know how to make a single candle mold but can't figure out a way to turn it from a single mold to a multiple-slot mold. I've included the current design i'm using and a picture of what i've looking to make.
Any and all help is appreciated and hope y'all have a nice day.

Put up my version of it, Cheers!

Re: Need help with candle mold
Model the plate, then model the candle as a subtractive revolve (groove) then pattern it....
Easy peasy.

Re: Need help with candle mold
Wait, so how do I change the number of tapers per mold?
I'm still relatively new to FreeCAD.....
Thank-you for the help by the way.
