Putting the sun to work melting bees
wax is quite a pleasure. I say this having hijacked pots from the
kitchen and made them quite a big mess to clean up. Not worth the
trouble. So I fabricated this solar wax melter and it works better
than I ever thought it would. I put 8 to 10 pounds of wax, honey,
propolis and miscellaneous bee stuff into this rig... and out comes
bleached wax and pollen infused honey. The photo tells the story,
this took about 6 hours in the sun. I still need to paint and make a
permanent glass door for the top. Just had to try it out as it was
90 degrees and sunny today.
