One use of both slumgum and dirty wax is to make
fire-starters.  You pour the melted slumgum or wax
over pinecones, insert about an inch of candle wick,
and you've got a fire starter that you can sell for
fifty cents to a dollar.  They burn a long time and
work very well to start fires in fireplaces.  With the
price of fuel this year I think there are going to be
a lot of fires started in fireplaces so should be a
good/great market out there.
