How to make a solid chunk of wax with a soda can.

Most of you know how to wax a ledge, but if you want to get a little creative and all you have are some crayons and a handful of used candles, this how-to should help. This how to shows you how to make a solid piece of wax out of old, used bits.



Step 1:
You will need to scrounge up all your used wax, crayons, candles, and find a soda can and something to cut with. Begin breaking, crushing, stomping or pummeling the wax items into small pieces. Now, carefully cut off the top off the soda can and and turn your stove on to about medium/high temperature. For most stoves, the soda can should fit right inside the center of the stove.



Step 2:
Slowly drop the pieces of wax chunks into the hot soda can (should be hot by now).



Step 3:
Finally, take the can of hot wax and put it in your freezer for around half an hour. Once cooled, stick a hole in the bottom of the can, that way you can pull that funny shaped part off at the end, other wise the suction will make it hard. Just grab a corner of the can, with scissors, and peel it away (BE CAREFUL,THE EDGES OF THE CAN ARE VERY SHARP!)

thats kind of intresting but its a good idea

thats so smart buy if u make it completley out of crayons will it come out coloured? pauly4sure

OMG im soo doing that so i can wax my rail box instead of used old peace's of small shit wax

yes if you make it out of crayons it will come out colored but if you use more than one color of crayons it will come out black or purple or other colors

haha i did this it actually works pretty goot all tho i got wax all over the stove lol

Hey It's a nice tutorial and all but you might want to give credit to the author when you copy and paste these tutorials.. to the real webmx.com lol

Yeah ive done this before but i was to lazy to go looking for my crayons and take pictures so i just googled it lol. His way doesnt work as well as mine though. His way is messy and kitchen scissors work very well.

i done this using a can from a soda and a lava lamp it worked great lava lams are easy 2 use and they do the same job

how do you use a lava lamp?
