Making a Sigilum Dei Aemeth out of Wax [Esoteric Saturdays]

About a year ago, I decided to make a Sigilum Dei Aemeth out of wax. In this video I describe the process of trial-and-error that let to this more or less acceptable outcome so you don't have to go through the same process (or at least use it as a starting point).

What I wish I'd known:
1) Use a single-piece silicone cake-mold (25cm/ 9.5 inch)
2) Ensure it is 100% IMPECCABLY CLEAN
3) DO NOT use a bain-marie.
4) You need about 700g (0.7kg / 1.5lbs) of virgin beeswax.
5) Melt the wax in the oven for around 15 minutes (be sure not to burn it, or let it start smoking)
6) Do not let even the tiniest drop of water come close to the molten wax
7) After trying around 7 times, I can say that flipping the cooled, solidified wheel over to smooth out the top-side ripples DOESN'T WORK.
8) Pop bubbles on the surface with the flame of a lighter when the wax is still liquid.
9) The wheel will shrink a lot if it's cooling from fully liquid, and a little if it's only partially melted.
10) Drawing the sigil really is the easy part.

Bonus 11) from @Kingsley Ravenscroft in the comments section: using a 1 piece metal tin and leaving the melted wax to cool down slowly in the oven overnight, he got no ripples. One, or the other, or both of these differences may be the magic ingredient... I'd bet on the slow cooling.
