really beautiful rings! are there any good books on the market that could help me learn this process? I know very little about investment casting or jewelery making but have always wanted to learn. I’m unemployed now so I might as well learn!

NY blue? Is that the light blue injection wax?

The light green wax is from Geisswein. No longer available. I like it better, but when I run out I will be bask to the NY blue wax.

Bought the wax pot second hand. The shop it came from was set up in the late 1980s, but it may not have been new when they got it.

I wish I could have got a better look at the original ring. :)

Light green injection wax? How does it compare to the red and light blue stuff? The shop I work at uses the red for wax injection. Its alright but I wish it made sharper edges.

Love the drain spigot on the side of the injection pot. Good idea! We once had a pot like that, sans spigot. How old is that one?

I have dental lab experience, this is something to do which can bring much satisfaction

what was that crank mandrel tool (what does it do?) that you were using in between measuring the ring sizes?
