Roy there's this thing called eBay :p
I found it more convenient & economical to use the essential oil.
Pure Bay Essential Oil (Pimenta racemosa) 100% Natural Therapeutic Grade | eBay
Hey my good mate, I know all about FleaBay, just ask my PayPal Account!
I did order some of the oil, $9 delivered and I'll play with that but as I said I'd like to eventually see what I can do with Benz's Mother's recipe. Nothing like having an heirloom.

Which brings me to ask if you could share your recipe???? :shrug: :w
Roy, you can share it with anyone if you like.
If you want to share, I would try some of that Bay Rum! A small sample!!
Oh..We are sharing the RECIPE! :rolleyes:
Ooh boy, that was a loong time ago. I'm may be in one of the many existing bayrum threads but it was all just a bunch of adding this & that experimentation so no specific formula involved. 10 drops at a time was my rule so I didnt overdo anything.
What I can remember is Captain Morgans rum . A full bottle & some Absolut vodka maybe a half bottle ? A bunch of orange rinds, bay rum oil, clove oil, sandlewood oil, lime oil, Virginian cedarwood oil, Frankincense oil. I still have a little left after many years. I can also clearly remember the lovely Chilean lady at the essential oil supplier who packed my parcel... but I digress (sigh)
You guys are just getting drunk by osmosis, man!

Sometimes you just can't get the oxidation off of molded scales without compromising the design. I've been experimenting with a few different things to try to color the scales and so far this is been the best one. It's called Kiwi heal and edge and it's just a basic edge dressing for shoes. I put on a very thin coat and it came out glossy and dries very quickly. So far it seems like it's going to be a very durable finish. Sorry for the crappy pics.

I've ordered them in the past, but they were not cheap. It seems this plant likes tropical climates. I don't think it will grow where I live(I've looked into it). We need to talk some of or SRP brethren in the Florida area into planting a couple of trees. :beer1:
