Abstract
A tool for chamfering an end of a candle, so that it fits into a candle holder having a smaller diameter opening than the original diameter of the candle; the tool including a tapered hole, into which the end of the candle is fitted, and a cutting blade being along one side edge of an elongated slot along one side of the tapered hole.
Claims2
A candle diameter reducer, comprising, in combination, a sharpening tool for cutting a chamfer at a lower end of a candle, said candle diameter reducer including a conically tapered opening, into a wide end of which said candle is inserted and rotated, said conical opening having a longitudinally extending slit along a side thereof, so that a cutting edge of a blade chamfers said candle;
- said candle diameter reducer comprising a conically tapered shell of resilient material, said slit extending from a wider diameter edge of said shell, and nearly to an opposite end thereof, said slit having one longitudinal edge thereof protruding inwardly into said conical opening, so as to form said cutting blade edge, and means whereby a tapered angle of such shell is selectively adjustable.
