A tip from @innershelter for sawing a rough notch in the bench edge and filling it with beeswax so lubricant is always at hand.

Here is a sawing tip from @innershelter - “My bench has a raised edge all over (great to stop things from rolling off). I *always* lose my beeswax, so I sawed off a small chunk, making sure to leave it rough and with a bit of an undercut, so it holds the lubricant better, then smooshed some beeswax in there. I can easily lubricate my saw, burs etc. and it's out of the way.” Love this! Thank you for taking the time to share with us! #greenlionsawframe #sawingmetal
