Mad from wax cappings

I have some wax capping from the last honey harvest. I thought about rinsing them and making Mead. I have never done that before.

And I have a couple of questions.

Should I boil the wash afterwards?

Or should I add water and yeast to the cappings and start fermentation?

How much water would you add?

Suppressed Walther P1

I bought a Walther P1 and got an extra slide and barrel that were not serialized. Shortened and threaded w barrel, moved the front sight to the slide. The suppressor is a lightweight wiped aluminum monocor Form one suppressor I mentioned before. Guns cycles and is very quiet when an ablative is used. (Vaseline)

Suppressed Walther P1

I bought a Walther P1, got an extra slide and barrel. I cut the Barr and threaded it. And then moved the front sight to the slide. The suppressor is a lightweight wiped aluminum monocore Form1 suppressor models after the Thompson Poseidon. It's light enough to cycle the gun without a Nielsen device.

Cannon fuse for delay

Has anyone ever used a canon fuse for delays? Does it ignite reliably. My idea is to use heat shrink to avoid premature ignition. And coat the ignition end with a slurry of gunpowder dissolved in Acetone. Once the Acetone is evaporated you get this super easy to ignite end piece.
