wax

I guess I need to clarify to all :)

Victory brown wax is a different ball game from candle wax. I am familiar with waxes and casting bronze. That is why I am asking if anyone 'knows' of a way to make candle wax suitable for casting. As it is, and I have tried adding different things, it still seems to be too hard and brittle to slush cast. I have tried to slush cast the wax and it almost works for pieces without unndercuts, - still brittle though.

In a nut shell the crystalline structure of parrafin is big, microcrystalline was is small.

What I am asking is if anyone knows how to modify it.

Thanks,
Henri
