I finally got around to making a simple wax melter. I made a box to fit an old window. I used a rim of foam carpet underlay between the window and the box. In keeping with my wood working abilities, there is no hinged lid or door at the front of the box; To load and unload the melter I just lift off the window.
The question I have is related to the sluggum that accumulates on the tray. How do you keep it from being swept into the melted wax? Much of it remains behind on the tray, but I was wondering if there was a way of keeping more of it out. Would a piece of cloth or hardwire mesh raised above the tray work? What do the veterans find works best?
Thanks, Adrian.
