    Really need more information re what it is you're doing and with
    what kind of wax. In the meantime, the hard waxes (green, purple, and
    blue) can be glued with any (most?) of the super glues. It does need
    good bonding surfaces (not just single point of contact) and while
    reasonably solid (in wax terms) it won't take a lot shear force. 

    And yes, it burns out just fine.
