LARGE HOT WAX BATH FOR TOOL PRESERVATION/
PARTS PRESERVATION, CASTINGS, ETC.
Used, clean and works great. There is a hairline crack on lid as shown but it does not affect function or operation.
Look around your shop and I am sure you will find dozens, if not hundreds of valuable tools and parts now being constantly exposed to damage from accidental mechanical contact, dirt, grime, chemicals and corrosion (especially if you live in a rainy or humid area or near ocean) - drill bits, chisels, milling machine bits, saw blades, router bits, screwdriver tips, punches, etc. And exposed sharp edges and points present safety risks. One of the best and easiest ways by far to protect and preserve tools and parts - especially the pointed or cutting ends and edges - is to dip them in hot wax. In fact, you'll find that this method is typically used with new expensive milling machine bits and router bits. When you need the tool or part, you simply peel off the wax, which you can then reuse in the pot (or use as hobby wax to help postion screws, nuts and other small parts, seal holes, etc.).
Great for tools, parts and other gear you seldom use, critical, expensive, kept in reserve, taken on trips (e.g. your car tools, truck tools, boat tools, airplane tools), and used outdoors (e.g. camping, hunting, fishing, hiking, climbing, water sports, spelunking, survival training, other outdoor sports and activities). And great for things you are going to store for long periods of time, for example, for survival purposes.
Wax preserves steel, iron, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, silver, gold, other metals, some types of plastic (high-temperature plastics), ceramics and wood. Especially in a cold or wet environment and/or using a higher-temperature wax where the wax won't melt in the hand due to your body heat or get slippery, waxing a metal tool handle and/or shaft can also both electrically insulate and thermally insulate the tool, and even improve the grip of the tool.
Also, if a tool or part has a sharp point or cutting edge, wax coating helps prevent accidental stabbing or cutting injuries, as well as breaking and dulling of the edge or point.
This waxer can also be used to melt wax for molds and casting applications, such as for making small toys and parts. And when not turned on, the tub is also convenient for mixing cold mix materials such as paints, plaster, plant soils, etc. Practically endless uses for this wax machine. The inside surface particularly resists wet materials sticking to it, and makes it easier to clean.
Fast and easy to use! You just place the wax machine on a flat, level, sturdy surface (out of reach of children and pets) in a clear, clean, dry work environment, plug the wax melter in, turn the wax melter ON, allow the wax to melt (adjustable heat settings), and gently dip in your cleaned tools or other items one at a time to the level that you want the wax to protect, allowing the wax on each item to cool and solidify before touching. When you get ready to use the protected tool or part, you simply and easily peel the wax off. Removing a protective wax coat is much easier than removing a protective varnish or paint coat.
Also great for preserving precision machine parts and automotive parts (car parts), preserving jewelry, preserving silverware, preserving hobby and craft items, preserving coins, preserving insects, plant leaves, flowers, your old baby's shoes, preserving precious personal items from a beloved dearly departed, preserving religious artifacts, preserving fossils, preserving rock specimens, preserving gems, preserving collectibles of many types, etc. And hot wax is also great for sealing containers, letters, packages, etc., and for preserving and tamper-proofing them. And for preserving and insulating batteries, electrical terminals (e.g. your car battery terminals), electrical contacts, match boxes, and small ammunition boxes, especially if you are going to spend some days in the wilderness camping, hiking, fishing or hunting. Great also if you are being transferred to an area with a lot of blowing sand, such as the Mid East (e.g. Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.) where you want to keep sand out of items important to you and possibly to your own survival. Having worked at White Sands, NM, for years testing guidance packages on its famous high-G, high-speed Test Track, I discovered that fine blowing sand will infiltrate even into the tiniest spaces, even containers with tight lids (some sand is as fine as confectionary sugar), and contaminate or damage the contents, so even tight containers don't always protect well enough against water (if submerged), gasoline, oil or sand but wax hermetically seals).
Note: Prior to using a hot wax method on any expensive or irreplaceable item or critical situation (e.g. survival training), first experiment with it on much cheaper versions of your items to be sure that hot wax won't cause any kind of problem for you or the preserved item. Caution: The wax gets very hot when it melts, so use carefully with caution to prevent possible injuries and damage. Again, keep always keep hot wax away from pets, children, and irresponsible people just like you would with a boiling pot of stew. Always wear eye, face and hand protection, a heavy long-sleeve shirt, jacket or shop apron, and never drop or throw items into the hot wax as the hot wax may splash onto unintended things. Always gently place and remove items being waxed. I usually tie a cotton string (with a hook on the end) around an unwaxed part of the item to be waxed, and then gently lower item into the wax to the desired depth and then gently raise it out, and then hang the item on a strung rope by the hook until it completely cools and wax solidifies before touching the item. Made by Gema. 15" x 9-1/2" x 8".
