Chapstick & Paste Wax: An idea for AG

Ok we all know that paste wax is really good stuff. We all also know the pains with applying paste by hand. Well dually noted by Ehuth1, taking the paste out of the jar is not a good idea. Well driving home from Waco and pondering this issue, I noticed my lips were chapped and I needed som chapstick... well the little cogs in my head started spinning and this is what I came up with. What if it were possible to make the jar of paste wax work like chapstick so that it would be easier to apply to a LC pad or whatever? Just turn a knob on the bottom and up comes the wax, then turn in back down to take down in the jar again? To me sound practical.... what do you think?

p.s.-- if this gets used i get 5%

A member on various forums, Eliot Ness, came up with this idea some time ago and but it to use. The idea has since gone over (or was in development ahead of time) to Griots Garage where they are selling a product called the Carnauba Wax Stick. 3.5 oz for $13 though.
