DT, for the Vintagers, get the Guinness pouring, "Mines a pint", "Don't mind if I do", "Thank you Sir, very generous", "Don't mention it".

Hey Sal, will you be hanging out with DT or Toby Barclay from Heritage or elsewhere. I'd love to meet you. I met the kilted Mac a couple of years ago and I would have wasted some of David's time also but he was due to throw someone out of the tent and I just happened to be next in line.

Gentlemen,
To summarize, what's in it?

Smallbore's formulae from p. 1 courtesy of Pete M Boiled linseed oil – 16 oz Spirits of turpentine – 2 oz Carnauba wax – 200 gr Venice turpentine - 2 teaspoonfuls Mix together and heat until it simmers. Simmer for ten minutes then allow to cool. Be careful it does not catch fire -!!!! DT did graciously sacrifice a tip of one digit for chemical analysis- full (and likely surprising) results to follow. Lab has been alerted to possible single malt contamination

If Lagavulin was the contaminate, I'll take a couple of liters.
Kind Regards,

Thanks Revdoc, I already had that one and was thinking there was more mystery to it.
That one modified was the one I used (some months ago) for the Ideal.

I'm going to upgrade to Dig's recipe when I find the Venice turps. JC, you were up this way (or down depending) and should have laid over for a month so we could shoot some flower pots.
