This is the option for you if you know the Lost Wax basics, but want to learn and refine your skills in setting stones in wax, and casting-in-place.

In this course you will learn:

  • how to remove the stones from the wax

  • how to cast stones in place

  • how to achieve a high quality flush setting with claws, in the wax phase

  • a list with links on what tools I use and where to get them
