Susan C. said that if she turns the rheostat up too high, the
wax will come out like slush. Any ideas on how high to turn it?
Halfway, etc?

Each type of wax has a slightly different melting point, but as far as I
have been able to determine, I start out with the rheostat turned to about
1/4 and check the consistency of the wax before getting to work. BTW, slush
ain’t all bad; I used a glass plate frame to create some flat sheets in
patterns for building on…
