It is a mixture from beeswax, caraubawax and some other ingredients thinned with true balsam terpentine oil.
Next time when mixing my next stockpile I will do a how-to.

[/quote]i look forward to that how-to.

I'd missed this Simon.  Congratulations on the bow, the #, and the win.  Just beautiful.

Absolutely stunning in every way. I really like the D/R design. I've found I can go longer draws on shorter length that defies the standard draw length x 2 plus 10%. I know with good Osage those numbers go out the window.

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Breath taking!  I can't imagine a bow looking so beautiful but you've hit a home run with bases loaded on this one.

Makes my latest look like a used popsicle stick.
