Well he did and the darn thing makes sealing a treat! The focused heat and a little waving around of the wax through the flame just produces a pure clean puddle of wax that is cool enough to seal immediately.
I should say that the wax I use is the olde style shellac stuff not the more modern plastic.

Are there others who use sealing wax on their letters?

From time to time I use Herbin Supple Sealing Wax on my letters.It works well and lasts going through the mail.Sometime most other sealing waxes I have tried do not do well.

I don't usually because of the bother with the melting and then they come off in the mail. However, Sam from Pendemonium is going to have some of the flexible stuff that she sells that is applied with a glue gun, so I'm going to buy that and give it a go. Supposedly it goes through the mail ok.

One more update. The seal on the letter sent locally went through just fine and arrived intact. Still waiting to hear on the one sent to Florida.
Any news on how the one sent to Florida arrived?
Thanks for the reminder. The seal made it to Florida intact. The initials on it had been scraped somewhat, but it was in decent shape. I think they ended up as good as any and better than most.
