Badgerbalm. This stuff is awesome. I recommend the “healing balm” for cork and thread tenons. It also works marvelously on your hands and lips. The ingredients are extra virgin olive oil, castor oil, beeswax, aloe vera and essential oil of sweet birch. They also have all sorts of great balms for everything from lips to feet to sore muscles, and all of it is 100% natural, organic ingredients. Check out their website at http://www.badgerbalm.com for more info.
Best,
Chris

Chris - First, I hate to see a post go for so long with ZERO resposes.
Second, I checked out Badger after reading and seeing your post posted about five times. So I zip coded the “find a store” page, found a store, bought it - you are right! Its great for all of the above.
Now I’d like to push the topic back up to the top again.
Here’s what I use. Not as catchy a name as Badgerbalm, but it’s got slippery elm bark extract! Come on, people; slippery elm! Doesn’t it just SOUND cool?
Over the decades, I’ve found few
human problems, musical or spiritual,
that cannot be solved (or at least
alleviated) by mayonaise. You heard
it here first.
Jim,
Not a bad idea{mayonaise}.I had an instructor once who said that there are very few personal problems that can’t be solved by the proper application of high explosives. He was sorta noisy but fun at parties.Properly placed mayonaise will prevent all the wrong notes from being heard as you {attempt} to play your flute.

Alright, mayo doesn’t smell so good
over the decades, but everything has
its downside–and it’s a lot easier
on badgers than Badgerbalm (though
maybe that’s something you smear
on badgers to calm them down,
if and when you catch them,
as opposed to something made
of badgers? I confess I’ve always
found Baby Oil a bit sinister.)
OK, I checked the ingredients.
I’m sold. Badgerbalm it is.
