Here is a tip for creating your own carving tools from @argenta.shop - “I modify inexpensive screwdrivers! Any small screwdriver can work for modifying and then wax carving. The modification goes by annealing - hammering - filing- sanding (80 to 1000 grid). And the posibilities are endless. You do the shape you want, and the sharpness or smoothness you need.” LOVE this!! Wax working is so fun and this is such an easy, inexpensive tool set you can make for yourself! Thank you so much for sharing!! #metalsmithsociety #jewelrymakingtipoftheday #jewelrytools #lostwaxcasting #lostwaxcastingprocess
