I bought my Green tube about 15 years ago at LL Beans. Found out in a very short time that the old bee's wax was more to my liking. When I got back into tying again in 1988 I was told "you have to have a tube of Overton's Wax" so I bought it.
With the introduction of waxed thread I found I don't use any wax other than for truly unruly materials.
I keep my Overton's on my traveling tying station and have turned down up to 25.00 for it at some shows I have tied at. When my tying days are over, I will give it to some new flytyer or is it fly tier. LOL
BTW Sowbug conformations will go out next week

Byard, i was lucky enough to get a tube of Overton's.......should last many years. I also have the Gehrke's Fly-Makers Wax and it is pretty good also. Another one i have is the Wilson's Wax by Creek Company, which says it hides human odor. mark...........

Where dose one find Overtons Wonder Wax Steve

However, a VERY close substitute is Gehrke's Wax. <http://www.linesend.com/product/tying_essentials.shtml#wax>
