This tip for carving wax bezels is genius! Thanks for sharing @kastjewelryco ”Finally getting the hang of a technique I learned at Kate Wolf’s wax carving course - using my flexshaft drill press to open up wax bezels. It’s so much faster than carving them out by hand, even with stopping every two seconds to get rid of the shavings so I can see my damn lines!” I hope to take a lesson one day with @katewolftools 💕#metalsmithsociety #waxcarving #lostwaxmethod #lostwaxprocess #jewelrywaxcarving #jewelrytechniques #jewelrytipoftheday
