I see felix here some. His good friend and was also the assistant chef on the big batch of FWFBL was Sundog. Sundog runs the site castpics and the proceeds from the batch helped fund that site. Sundog also provides the home for the MOAS(Mother Of All Smelters)which was used to cook the batch. Contact Sundog webmaster@castpics.net and you should be able to get the scoop. | |||

12FLVSS---I am all thumbs when it comes to cooking anything. Despite this,I did my own batch. All ingredients except the beeswax and anhydrous lanolin were readily available. For the beeswax I contacted the county agent and he gave me the name of a beekeeper that would probably have some. (Many will say use toilet bowl rings--WRONG they are petroleum). For the lanolin,Walmart Rx ordered it and had it next day. I cooked it in a metal(they are plastic nowdays) coffee can on a Coleman stove so the smoke was outside. I store it in same can I cooked it in and just glob it into the luber as needed. | |||

I spent some serious time writing up all the conversations about FWFL. It came to a 40+ Word document. Felix and I talked about it a lot. The biggest problem that was continually being made was --adding the "lanolin" while the mixture was too hot--, and burning the lanolin. It will still work, but no where near as well. If you contact me off-line, I will send you the document as an attachment. Remember--- the lanolin burns!!!! Before Felix and Sundog made the big batch, we checked the MP,BP, and breakdown point of each ingredient - Lew lewisgoldstein@aol.com | |||

I also have a great PDF demo with picturesmaterial list/instructions from Jon Aschenbach aka Turbo. From the looks of his mix, he also has burned lanolin. - Lew | |||

I add the beeswax first and put the lanolin on top. Even if the oil solution is a little hot, the wax will get the temperature down way before the lanolin hits it. It is a good citizen's duty to love the country and hate the gubmint. | |||
