Some may have seen these videos before but figured I would add to the forum. Hopefully it will give some ideas of how to make yourself some parts for your models.
this video just talks about some different waxes and what they are like to work with.

Glad you like them. If anyone has an interest you should grab a block of the green file a wax and play around with it, its really amazing stuff to work with. Yes Im a wax junkie LOL
ref1ection:
Where do you buy the green wax and is there any thing to look for besides the colour?
