Use furnaces to de-wax copper

I think there should be a way to take the wax off of copper. So I propose smelting waxed copper to "melt the wax off".

    This is a must have feature, you could also use the grindstone to grind off some oxidation

    I think it should be click on cauldron and furnace will oxidise it one stage every time instantly

    Maybe it could have a very short processing time, so it would be "just long enough to melt the wax off, but not long enough to oxidize it"

     

    I would like the cauldron idea, except for wax being waterproof.

    Good ideas though, and I appreciate the feedback on my feedback.

     

     

    (EDIT) Maybe lava cauldrons could be used.

    If you have copper blocks and ingots and honeycomb in your inventory, you can get confused between quick crafting waxed copper block and copper block. This would allow for a way to undo it.

    Maybe the brush, so it comes into the game with other uses than excavating

    or paper, or a cauldron

    I don't see a ton of uses for this, but it makes sense so I agree.

    I feel that lava cauldrons would be a better choice.

    well, I guess this is irrelevant now since they added using an axe.
