Wow, this thread went around and around...
Thanks for pointing it out!
I have a question about sealing wax. The old one was made on the basis of shellac, ie the same "lac" that was used to secure tulwar handles.
Nowadays, all sealing waxes are based on some kind of plastic and are softer and bendable: would obviously not do the job. Or would they?
Anybody knows where to get the original dark-brown sealing wax that is shellac-based?
Could solids, such as crushed brick or just sand be mixed with it?
