To carve your block easily and effectively: Wet the surface of the stone completely with the water you've sprayed on. Then, wrap the stone in a thoroughly damp piece of tissue paper and place it in a sealed container, such as a zip-lock bag. After about an hour, the Meerschaum will be ready for carving. If you're carving deep enough to approach the dry center of the stone, you can spray the dry area you've reached with water and continue carving. Once you've finished carving, let the stone sit in an open area until it's completely dry. After final sanding while the stone is dry, seal your carving by dipping it in melted and liquefied beeswax or carnauba wax. Wipe the excess wax with some tissue while the carving still hot with heat of the melted wax. I recommend drilling (fire chamber, air hole, and mouthpiece tenon holes) after waxing and by fixing it securely. Now it is ready to gently buff with or without some carnauba wax. Natural beeswax gives a distinctive honey color to carved items. Even with traditional use of purified beeswax, pure white will tint a little towards ivory color. With carnauba the item will be darker.
