Wax Casting


I've been messing with casting stuff out of wax so that I can later cast stuff in metal. This was the first attempt that even came close to working. As you may or may not be able to see, it lost lots and lots of detail. This is a problem that I'll have to figure out how to fix. I think that perhaps sloshing the wax around inside would help a bit. Perhaps if I use a stick of some kind to prod the wax around the mold...

Anyway, we'll see how it works out.
