I bought a piece of "granadillo" offa Ebay to make a few trial steel guitar "sitar" bars - it's a bar with a flattish spot, the commercial ones are junk but I'm going to do a few wood mockups to make sure I have the (varying) radii right before I go crazy on some delrin, poly, steel who knows. The 1.5" X 1.5" X 13" stick I got is all covered in wax... How to do? I have denatured alcohol, hot water, rags, a BiC lighter, I'm just wondering if any of you KNOWLEDGEABLE guys have the secret, cool, jiffy dewaxing method set aside. This is the guy who wants me to make him one, BTW:
