Blue fixing wax

#1

Wasnt sure where to post this.

Anyhow, I keep seeing this blue fixing wax being used and It looks like just the ticket for some 0.8km silver and aluminium i want to machine. However where can I find this stuff in the uk? Anything similar in the uk?

I have tried double sided and it warped my piece when I went to remove it. I have considered blue tape medium adhesion with some CA glue. But this wax just looks spot on.

Cheers guys.

Look for machinable wax.
Looks like Carbide3D has it also.

Not really sure. How about Mitee Grip? https://www.miteebite.com/products/mitee-grip/

This is from one of the more advanced Shapeoko owners. This might be exactly what you want. he uses hot glue.
