What to do with stubby and broken crayons.

When Harold Rabinowitz was teaching art in New HAven during the 1960's
he found himself deluged with stubby and broken crayons in his class
room. Not one to waste, he began designing tools to melt the crayon
pieces and some smaller tools to apply it. By 1968, Harold's' first
Waxmelter Palette was being used in many school art programs.
Thirty years and a number of design revisions later, the Waxmelter
Palette is still a good tool for encaustic and batik instruction.
He also designed an electric Wax Batik Pen for finer line work.
Harold and Kiki will be at the NYC NAEA conference in March
demonstrating wax drawing technique at the Twisteez booth #210 . Stop by
and say hello to them.
