I'm looking for the fillet wax, but it would cost me ~£38 shipped or $68CDN!!!!! Anyone sourcing from a distributor in North America?

This looks very similar.
i have filleting wax form EC, but from structure and smell defenetely looks beeswax.
so maybe anyone with no access to buy, could try this recipe.

So I haven't been able to nail down a source in Canada/US for the Easycomposites yellow fillet wax.
Looking on the Freeman site they have a few options
This
wax
is said to have a soft sticky feel which sounds like it might be good for filleting... Any insight as to the consistency of the yellow stuff sold by easy composites?
This
brown wax
is said to be soft somewhat sticky and provides a good surface finish
Any advice as to which might be a suitable replacement?
Thanks!

I'd say both of those will be much harder than the EC filleting wax. There's no way you could sculpt or carve the EC stuff, it's extremely soft.

It's horrible though. I'll certainly never go back to using clay or plasticine.

I'll second that... Could the EC stuff just be bees wax?
