It turned out that my homemade grog and bentonite mix was a whole lot more absorbent than yours, and required nearly three times as much paraffin as your mix before it would hold together when pressed.
It might be that I was processing drier, coarser materials at a higher temperature of amalgamation, so more of the paraffin evaporated. I guess I’ll know when I flame-test.

Very cool blog. I happily discovered your site linked in Joe McMillian’s article ‘Campfire Magic’ on ezine articles and finding your blog is a bonus. I’m bookmarking it. Keep writing and remember less is more sometimes – but this piece on wax nozzles is amazing and unique – this is link bait for rocketeers!
