[mpa] Waxing tubes

[jharmon12 at juno.com]

I dissolved my wax in Naptha and simply use a pistol cleaning rod to swab the inside of the tube with the Naptha/wax mixture and allow the Naptha to dry completely before pressing.

Yeah Mikee.... im going to try the gun cleaning kit that i never used.  Try either gauze pads or the green kitchen cleaning pads tied with bands or somehow, then dipped into a small pot of melted wax and in and out sorta quickly.  Pretty much what walters tool looks like on his site.(He jumped in on this in a hurry!) If I get it to thick maybe throw em all in the oven for a little bit verically, will see how it goes.  Or maybe do it the opposite way wear gloves with a preheated tube first then wax it.

I think the pressure cooker way looks like a mess to clean when all done and just more stuff laying around. If I find my way dont work well then i may go the presto cooker way with a cheap top fence post as mentioned.
