Wax Carving

Wax Carving

I am experimenting with a new skill in manually carving wax. I can produce wax carvings very nicely with my CAD/CAM but have few options what to do with the carvings when finished. What I intend to do is expand into lost wax casting.

The first step is learn all I can about manually producing and most importantly finishing a wax carving. I know the mechanics, now I am learning the art.

This pix is the roughing out stage. Much more work will go into this before it is finished. Using CNC it would be done by now. 🙂

I post mini updates in my The Hobbyist’s Workshop blog but I get little attention there. Here is a link to that blog so check it out if you like this sort of thing.
