Try adding some tar to the mix. It gives little darker finish, and great smell.
I might have to give that a go mate
Juat a couple drops give great smell, and will not affect color. I have mix of turpentine and cotton oil. Works ok for my needs.But that looks truly great. I will have to try your recipe sometime.

next time you boil some potatoes i bet they taste funny
I would say so. You need to be careful with amount you put in. Just a few drops will do on that amount of wax. Too much, and it might go sticky. Call me weird, but i love smell of tar in reasonable amounts.That tar has good rust proof features. You can use it for car tire bolts for example.
Well, i bet it will turn beautiful dark color. You just need to try how much to use it to get needed results. You know, you could put that glass jar in kettle with water. That way you dont boil it so easy.You have so much tar there, so you could try this. Pine tar salve.1/4 cup of sunflower oil1-2 teaspoon beewax1/2 teaspoon tar1/4 teaspoon activated charcoal (not necessity)Or easy wayMix few drops in white vaseline.These are great for dry hands and scalp, small wounds, sore muscles, lip balm etc... Real snake oil
Now you just need to get a horse But dont blame me for that... It tuly has many uses.Remember to show us results.
I’ve wanted to make my own axe handle treatment for some time so I ordered some bees wax and turpentine to go with my linseed oil, A mix of three equal parts, I used the little jar to guess how much wax to addMelt the wax in a saucepan (probably should have used a double boiler thingy) then stir in the liquids Warm your glass jars before poring the hot wax in, I’m just like Jamie Oliver with an Axe fetish Yep that seems to work well Other recipes/stuff http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,42415.0.html
