Have no clue what you are doing, which might have helped.

Cerrobend (Disclaimer here) is a low melting point metal.

There's this seldom used site called Google which has information on wax spheres.

You might try there.

How can they reach us and not be able to reach Google.

I've got it. I don't know why I didn't think of this before. It's a diabolical scheme by the CR4 overlords who protect the Gurus.

They must have figured a way to surreptitiously redirect people on the internet from Google to CR4!

Think of it. Millions of unsuspecting searchers are being rerouted here thinking they have reached the help desk.

Ive got it, why would someone go to the trouble of searching google when the gurus here can do the work for them? sounds much simpler to me. or perhaps nobody wants to disturb the google gods lest they must make a sacrifice.

Anyway, try thomas net or mfg.com you may also find results there. Mcmaster carr carries wax beads http://www.mcmaster.com/#candelilla-wax/=8cau2c but I am not sure the size though the melting point is comparable the parafin wax is 130 degree melting point and comes in beads though i dont see the actual size, perhaps they can help.

Try contacting a company that makes or sells table shuffleboard supplies. They use wax spheres as a low friction surface for shuffle board pucks. Different diameters for different speed play.

Below website will provide you different particle size and different melting temperature wax. They are little costly but is good for making ink water or solvent based
