My first beeswax was a puck about the size of what would come out of a Dixie
cup. My mom got it for me for the odd small boat sewing I was doing. Still have
most of that bit. More recently somebody tossed a block that’s 6x6x1 that I
rescued ( read hoarded). Should probably pass that
3 days later: Nah. It's a good story but it's about teeth (and needles and
lighters and pliers) and not bikes or beeswax. So just let your mind go and
have fun with it.

I have recipe for a hand salve / lip balm. One ounce of grated beeswax, 1
ounce of jojoba oil and 2 ounces of red palm fruit oil. Warm gently in a double
boiler until melted and stir together. You can add a few drops of essential oil
like lavender, or chamomile. Store in a 4 ounce canning jar,
Hey, just another Day in the Life of Boy Blunder. If I hadn't been chewing
on that Jolly Roger while I was riding it wouldn't have happened! I've got
another one about a pair of pliers, a lighter, and a needle but your wives
will wonder why you fainted at the keyboard.

Oh man. I agree. Wish I’d had beeswax for a similar experience.

OK, I think Craig just won this thread. His dentist isn't the only one who is
impressed.
Red Green would approve. "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at
least find you handy."

Touring a backroad in Central AZ. 2 day's ride from anywhere. Lost a
filling. Had a chunk of Grant's Original Beeswax in my kit. Took out my
trusty Swiss Army knife and heated up a pea-sized piece with the magnifying
glass. Pushed it into the hole. Stayed there for a week and half till I
could
I bought one of those lumps too. (Don't think the cup survived.) I keep
some in the basement shop and some in the garage shop.
If I'm building a wheel, I'll first drag the threaded ends across the wax
to ease building and maybe give some thread locking, but more in hopes of
keeping moisture
For decades I have used beeswax on wooden tool handles and on wooden knife
handles.
Having spent decades butchering meat, poultry and seafood, I found it to be the
best treatment.
I gently warm the handle, rub with beeswax, gently warm again.
It’s ever so slightly tacky at first but

Butch Wax is quite a bit more waxy and far less greasy than pomade; it was
made for the crew cuts popular in the '50s and early '60s, to make the hair
stand up. But it works to keep 3/4" long hair down, too. Pomade was
basically scented Vaseline.
I am old enough, and lived in places that were
Patrick, is butch wax different from pomade?
I haven't had a super-short haircut since I was 12 or 13, when I got
totally buzzed (shorter than crew cut), together with a friend, on a dare
from another friend. Yeah, stupid things teens do…
I used beeswax to waterproof the Brompton bag that I
I make paw balm for my dogs with beeswax and coconut oil.
I'm also about to wax some cotton trousers with 100% beeswax.
