I've added another conversion/rule of thumb to
http://www.beekeeping.co.nz/convert.htm
for supers/honey/cappings wax.  For a full depth super of honey, I'm
assuming 30kg(66lb) full weight, with 20kg(44lb) of honey, 10kg(22lb)
epty weight.  Extracting the honey will give .3kg(.66lb) cappings
wax.  Weights based on FD super of 'mixed' dark/light old/new
combs...
 
Sound reasonable?
