Soy wax pill

I realize this post is dated.
I recently had a thought of mixing crisco or olive oil with wavers wax and corn meal and make wax wafers instead of wads. I just found this interesting post.

Wavers wax has other stuff in it. You can find pure beeswax cheaper. For free if you know any bee keepers but you will have to strain it. Why add cornmeal?

Blackie Thomas of the eponymous vids (making paper cartridges) uses Glade soy wax beads (pearls, he calls them)) right over the powder.  I've used them over a dry felt wad or a wad with a couple of drops of olive oil on it. Works good.  Another of the 500 ways to skin a cat.  It's a lot of fun and ya gotta lube.  Lube or die, gentlemen.

The soy wax that I have is small chunks. I tried putting it directly in the chamber, but it is to big. I now use 4oz of soy wax and 1 oz of beeswax melted, poured in a pan, then cut to size with a 357 case. This makes a cookie thick enough and still plenty of room for the ball over 24g of pyrodex.
