Ben Salinas suggests orthodontic wax as a substitute for beeswax (which in itself is old school magician's wax) in a video I have that came with an intro levitation kit (a bit disappointing as the IT wasn't great, but the video was not bad). I just got some from the drug store and so far it seems to be a pretty good option. I am even going to take one of my secondary practice decks and see if I can fashion an ID, though I am sure the adhesiveness will wear off in time and need to be renewed.

The hardware store sells enough magicians wax to last 3 lifetimes very cheaplly. It is the wax seal for mounting a toilet to the floor. It is a round ring about six inches in diameter and an inch thick and looks dark yellow.

It's been eight years since anyone posted here, but I wanted to add something for those who find the thread. I have a booklet in my library dedicated to the use of diachylon (lead plaster) in magic: Diachylon Deceptions, by D.J. Lonergan (see the attached image). It was published in 1934 by The Moderne Magic Studio in Chicago. Here's the table of contents for anyone who's interested:
