Hi AllenF,
Thank you for posting this video. I've seen this video before (a few times). A steam table which appears to be the major device for his bulk melting is NOT an inexpensive piece of equipment, and while, based on my local restaurant supply businesses, they do have, on occasion, used items which are less expensive, BUT whether they have such an item (since steam tables come in quite a variety of sizes) on hand is a hit and miss proposition. It appears that anyone would be hard pressed to find a NEW commercial steam table, AND the smallest size that is made, for under $500 (and it likely does not come with a stand, an insert pan, etc.,). IF a NEW steam table is as expensive as it appears to be, it appears to me that going the route of a commercial wax melter would be just as cost effective.
There is one thing that really puzzles me about this man and his candle making techniques, and that is his lack of concern re a pour temp. As a novice (approaching the end of my 1st year of candle making), just about all the tutorials specify using a thermometer to reach a predefined given temp; and when you factor in the time spent when using dyes and scent oils, and however minimal the time spent really is in mixing those into the melted wax, the temp does drop as you're doing so. Novices, I think (and everyone, I presume, experiences the voids and contractions that typically occur with beeswax, to include making relief holes [AKA vent holes] as part of their candle making technique), are hard pressed NOT to resort to a VERY mechanical formula approach to candle making, and to presume that pour temp is critical re keeping the voids "at bay".
