Holding a Wax Ring on a Sizer in an Engraving Vise

A tip from @georgiavaridakis for carving wax rings pinched on a sizer in a rotating engraving vise to free both hands.

Here is a wax tip from @georgiavaridakis - โ€œWhen carving or doing wax work on a ring, pinch the ring on a sizer in a rotating engraving vice. This frees up both hand, keeps the ring steady and allows you to easily rotate it while working. โ€œ LOVE seeing how folks use a vise to work! It can be a bit of an investment but they are so useful. Thank you Georgia for letting me share this ๐Ÿ™Œ #waxcarvingforjewelry #waxcarvingforjewellery #jewelrymaker #jewelersvise
