    beeswax for sale at Natls maybe?

    I have beeswax, filtered & clean. It's in (theoretically) one pound bricks, but after weighing, most are less than 16 oz. The weight of them varies somewhat, at least 12.5 oz. each.

    $7/ brick, which works out to a shade under $9/lb. Anyone interested? If enough folks want some, then I'll drag a bunch down to Nationals. Let me know how many bricks you'd want & I'll have an idea how much to bring. Hedge against inflation! Invest in the gold of the future! PM or email me at jimmyangst(at)gmaildotcom.

    Cheers!

    I'll take two bricks. I'll come to your camp site and pick up.

    Jim, I'll take a couple of bricks. I'll get them at the first MW skirmish.

    Great offer Jim. I'd like 3 bricks. I'll be down on Thursday (Nats). I'll stop by your camp. Thanks, Kurt

    Thanks fellars. I'll have the goods. John, I reckon I'll see you at C-burg for the fun shoot, it'll be good to clear the cobwebs properly before Nationals!

    Jimm,

    I could use a couple of cakes of beeswax if any is left. IIRC the 110th camps not too far from 1st Valley Rangerville.

    Beeware-- Beeswax is coming!

    I'm still taking orders for beeswax* brought to Nationals (or to anyone coming to the Centerburg fun shoot if you need it sooner) so if y'all want some & haven't placed an order, now's the time. As blabbed about above, it's $7/brick. Average weight is above 12 oz., so it works out to around $9/lb.

    *This wax comes from free-range, cage-free, probably mostly-organic-fed bees treated in an ethical & sustainable manner. It's unlikely that any of them were fed bee-parts, cow-parts or GMOs-- not on purpose, anyway. The bees were fairly compensated for their work, with full health benefits and wages as required by whatever federal law and PETA standards apply to bees. Actually that last part may not be true. We took the honeycomb away from the bees, heated & separated the wax from the sugary goodness, and ran everything through a sophisticated filtering system to remove various bee-parts and filth. You'd be surprised how much scummy detritus these bees deposit in their own hives. Ugh. Anyway, the wax is very, very clean and filtered, at no cost to the bees.

    The bees hang out in eco-harmony inside their hives, where their health and well-being are regularly monitored. They commute from place to place (via eco-friendly truck, trailer or van) to enjoy the robust food sources located by their employers and to perform their god-given role pollinating stuff. The bees are not charged any money for associated travel expenses. They are, as near as one can ascertain in these matters, very happy bees.

    PM or email me if you'd like to order some & haven't already.
