Well, there you go. Great idea.
Cool, thanks for posting.
I always wondered how to tell the difference between the male and female bees. Now I know.
Great Post:thumbup: Going to try it with some magnesim shavings in the cotton also.
Nice, and a resource I have available :D
I just use common sense. If it stings you for no reason, or because you smell bad....must be female.Quote:

Last time I bought a block, was about 7 bucks a pound, (I think) at a Farmers Market.
Also for doing iron work, apply bees wax on hot metal will give it that "black" look.
From what I understand, they have been putting "other" stuff in toilet rings, so not pure beeswax.
Well if it burns, and doesn't give off fumes.......?
Guess I better check the box next time I'm in the Hardware store.
"100% pure high-grade petroleum wax"
I'm not certain I appreciate the fact that it's 100% pure or that it's high grade. Either way, mind your own bees wax.
I used pure beeswax. 6 bucks a pound.
Would it not be cheaper to use steak? Just sayin.....
LOL, Yeah I think I paid $7 bucks last summer........get my bee's wax candles fro the same guy.....but doesn't give me a deal.
Was the only game in town at the time.
That's pretty cool! I'll have to try it.
