It's in Illinois. I've been out of town. I checked and I have 110 gallons of the Citgo blend with lot o' sulpher, one drum is unused, the other was used to cut maybe 20 parts. Also there's 2 drums of Hangsterfers, one of which has a lot of EP additive in it. Not sure how full the drums are. I would guess between 90-110 gallons.

If I get some free time I'll look into selling it off in small amounts. It's located in the Chicago 'burbs.

If your drums are shippable, and you can load, I am interested in buying them, I am in Chicagoland. I can sign a statement assuming full responsibility. Note, if I buy them, I will pay relatively little money as I have no idea if I can even sell them.

Larry, I'll see if I can get some Herbal Ed's Salve on your recommendation, but I've found other products with beeswax to be ineffective, and I was dumbfounded to find how little effect lanolin had, especially since I've used it in nitrile gloves overnight.

The soak (it) in cider is a pun.

The reference to reinforcing the bedframe would jokingly suggest that the lard would be a larger woman with considerable girth, everywhere. Every crease, a new piece, and so on..

Don't use gloves overnight. They'll make your hands sweat more and remove any lotion which might have softened (and sunk into) the skin.

I suggest you keep a tin of it in an outside pocket (it might melt in a pants pocket) so you can reapply it several times during the day.

Another thing I do to keep the cracking from happening is to abrade off any thick buildup of callouses. One of the large foot callous removers (sandpaper on a plastic stick) work well for both paws and peds. Smooth, wipe clean, and then slather on the goop. If you wake in the night, reapply it.

Oh, I see that now. It went PSA on me earlier.

Arrrrrgh! My creative visualizations are killing me!

Oh, 2 last possibilitie. I got some shea butter from an eBay merchant and didn't like the smell. I gave it to my neighbor lady who has half inch thick, cracked, bloody callouses on her elbows. About a month later, they were half the thickness and were no longer bleeding.

Virgin, unrefined coconut oil is really good stuff for the inside of the body, but I'll bet it would work well on the outside, too. Spectrum VCO comes in pint jars from the health food store for about $8.
