Ok, so what's your efficient method? Don't be so cryptic, educate everyone.
I have my chains hanging over the garage workbench. Spent chains on bent spokes and fresh chains on pegs. Once it comes time to wax (and the wax has molten in the slow cooker) i just lift the spent chains in the slow cooker, swish a bit and hang to cool. Once the chains have cooled I take the chains off the bent spokes and hang them on the correct pegs (every bike has a chain peg). In order to keep things organized every bike has its own bent spokes and every spoke has been tagged for a specific bike.
It's not rocket science.
Also can you share what wax you're using because it's clearly magical and far better than any wax I can get my hands on.
Currently I have Rex Black Diamond hot melt in a 1+11 configuration (1 black puck and 11 white pucks)
