Making Candles with 3D Printing and 3D Laser Scanning

Here is the Wax on 3D Laser Scanning

This is an article that is going to make your heart melt. It is going to burn your head and make you lose weight. It is going put fire in your bones and make you smell great. It is going to make you light up a room whenever you go there. It is going to make people sing and clap, and then give you a face full of air. It’s going to fill your ears with wax, and use you to fill in the cracks. I’m starting to wax poetic. Now that you look thoroughly confused, let me tell you what you are. You are a product of 3D laser scanning services and 3D printing services. You are, my friend, a 3D printed candle. 3D printed candles are the next big thing. Well, ok, maybe not. But I’m going to tell you about it anyway because it really is a really fantasticish idea. 

A New Gift Idea by 3D LASER SCANNING SERVICES

3D printed candles can be a great gift for someone like a rich boss who buys everything he needs and then some. I mean, let’s face it, how many people do you know who have wax statue of themselves with a wick sticking out of their head ready to be lit and burned? I know none. And neither do you, quite frankly, but we should. It is the gift that keeps on needing to be given, because once you burns it, it’s gone and next years birthday gift is good to go. And it need not be for birthdays only, you could give one for a wedding, a graduation, a farewell party, a thank you gift, just name the occasion. Nothing says “I care about you” more than a wax figurine. And the creativity can take it from there. You could make a whole army of wax duplicates of your boss. Or maybe you could do his family, or all of the people who work in that same office. Do see what I am saying. This is going to be a good gift. 

NOT ALL THAT HARD

So what does it take to do something like this. All it takes is a little expertise from 3D laser scanning services and 3D printing services. What does that mean? It means that you need a 3D scanner and a 3D printer. There is a way to make a 3D virtual model of someone just by taking some photos, but if you are wanting to stick with the old school approach you only need to get a good scan, and then create a silicon mold. Once you have that, all you need to do is pour your boss..i mean pour the wax into the mold, and your’ve got it. Okay, now I know that there is a problem, and I just realized it while I was typing this article. The trick is going to be getting your boss to sit still for the scan without figuring out what you are doing. You might just have to be sneaky about it and tell him that you are testing out the scanner. That might not work too well..but I’ll leave that for you to figure out. 

There you go. it’s just one more thing 3D laser scanning services and 3D printing services can do for you. Now let’s keep thinking of ways to put those 3D laser scanning and 3D printing skills to good use.
