Anyone know a quick easy way to finish 120 forged steel crosses for necklaces? I have beeswax and boiled linseed oil. What I have been doing is just heating about 10 at a time and take each one out with tongs and beeswaxing them that way. Is there a solution I could just dunk them in? How would you do it to save time?

Heat the wax mix and dunk in a warm part- repete 100 times :o

Its linseed oil (boiled), turpentine and bees wax mixed (.33 + .33+ .33). Descale the iron, heat the iron (black hot, not too hot) rub on the mixture. Repeat and buff out till it looks good. It should not take you too long. Remember the customer sees your product first and the craftmanship second. Make it look right and do the QC check. Good luck

Jerry Carroll suggests acrylic floor wax, dip and let dry.

I have used Johnson's liquid floor wax with great success. A coffee can with a good dose in the bottom. Add crosses. Roll around the lawn for 2 minutes. Hang to dry.
