Im going to have a TON of raw bee's wax with me at the Classic, maybe 25-30# worth. It is complete with wings, antennas, honey, dirt and grass! I can always use RW feathers, 50# plus shafting of any sort, skins or rawhide. Please run me down if you want some. Bees wax make the best strings. It can be easily cleaned up if you melt it and pour it through a screen of sorts. Then pour it into cupcake cups. I use it as is and have no issues.
Thanks

-

-
No sir, not to England.
-
Are you going to be at Marshall? If you have any left, I'm looking for some (a little). Don't know what I have anything that you'd want or need but who knows... some bamboo perhaps...
-
I will be there as well, and I will have some left.
-
I will send ya a message closer to the classic. I have a surplus of primaries and turkey season opens here Sat.
-
Sounds good. I need to snap a pic so we all know what it looks like. If youve ever cleaned hives out and melted the wax to seperate the honey youve seen what I have. Dirty on side, cleaner on the other.
-
When are you coming in Pearl ? If you get there before it gets to busy we can melt some down and clean it,I have done before but it's been a while,I actually mixed a little parfin with mine and made it a little softer after it set and not quite as sticky. I trade you out of a little, I can come up with something I am sure. :)

I will be there Wednesday afternoon Pappy. Charlie wants to play with a bunch of it before it gets too busy as well. I have enough to go around for sure. Plus, I have 2 1/2 boxes of unused wax combs that can be melted down with the rest, its pristine clean still.
-
Cool,I will have the outside stove in the work shop up and running so yall can play
all you like. :) May even make up some pitch glue while we are at it. :)

That was my plan Pappy. Got a big box of sap here, kind of soft, but it will boil down. I am sure we can find some sawdust around there to put in it right?
-
Look at that Charlie! Your plan is coming together.
-
Finally a plan that is coming together, after 64 years....lol. Let the fun begin....lol See you all soon
-
I will be there with lots of turkey feathers and stuff. I need some beeswax PD.
-
Sounds good Howard. Look me up when you get there. Im tall, fat gutted, ugly, bearded and will probably have a beer in my grippers if its after 10 am.........or so...........

While on the bees wax subject, does anyone have access to the solo or other name commoditie cups like you see in restaurants to put mustard and ketchup in. I really don't want to buy a full case but would like to see if some one coming to the classic has access to them and could bring some to put the bees wax in after it is melted?
-
I will bring something with me to put it in Charlie, probably cupcake cups. I want to leave most of it bulked up except for the stuff that is spoken for already and the stuff we make into pitch.
-
got you....see you soon
-
Well the turkey gods have shined on me 2 in 2 days I will have lots o feathers. Would you prefer rt or left?
-
Right side please and thanks.
-
OK, my buddies have given me some of their wings as well. My fletching cup runneth over!
