Filtering wax?

[Lizz]

I just got 25lbs of bees wax with lots of stuff in it. Any suggestions on filtering out the junk?
Thanks!

At the Bad Monk's Meaderie, we filter all the small crap out of our beeswax using a solar oven and a fine mesh screen, which we recycled up from a local dumpster. We got the idea from this fine fellow here :

I go to the local paint store and buy fabric paint filters. Melted wax pours nicely through it and it gets the little stuff out.
