My buddy, MONK, sent some sheep tallow last week so i could try my hand at making transfer wax. I melted down a few beeswax candles that i had from my mountain-man days, then added the tallow, and kept it stired, i poured the mixture into a container, placed a small paper-towel over it to soak up any grease that will float to the top. The mixture was about 65% beeswax and 35% tallow, in the event that anyone else has the same idea and wants to try it. You"ll know if its correct by running your thumb over it when it becomes solid. I better suggest also, that you find an old coffee can to do your mixture in, do not attempt this in your wifes prized pots or pans if you want to keep peace at home........ i might add, dont boil this stuff, use enough heat to melt it only.
