Hi All,
Concluding a particular path, I should melt the right quantity of lead and throw in it some right quantity of pulvis inside the right quantity of bee wax.

But they sold me an impure bee wax: and they told me it was aaabbsoulluttely pure…
And [ Rolling Eyes damn!] I already encase in it a certain quantity of pulvis…
Divinating on it I’ve found it was 55% bee wax & 45% parrafin!

I remember a text where they says that the bee wax thrown in the moulding metal – with the pulvis – should not fume, I mean produce any smoke whatsoever.
It’s true?

I fluxed some lead – this is the word for an operation of purification using wax or some oil thrown in the lead – just to see what happens, and it smoked a lot, stinking a lot, even lighting a fire with it.
Should be interesting to fail in the last phase, isn’t it?
Anyway one of these days I’ll throw the wax cocoon pushing it deeply in the melting lead.

So be careful dear Bro. and Sis. because a lot of people sell the wrong thing & just talk to air the mouth.

Zosimo,
Yes, we really must double check everything we purchase. The sellers will
often say anything. And it is not surprising the amount of smoke and fire,
like a volcano, the mantle will burn all up. A delicate goal is ours.

Good luck Brother
