  2. Hi Asma,
    This is 12X12 I find it difficult to work in the medium as large as I would like, because the wax cools and hardens very quickly, so one could not get a large (10") sweeping brush stroke on the board.This is one thing I am finding limiting. I am working with bees wax, as it is not so toxic, but in time i am going to try microcysaline, as I here it will do what I want.
