SAND CASTING – from wax carving to finished ring

I've been making rings for a month or two in my spare time and I hope to make a tutorial soon showing how you can do it pretty dirt cheap. I think my first three rings were made with about $200USD work of equipment - its really fun and I'll try and share the process in a more in depth video when I get over being in front of the camera. DIY ring making video on a budget coming soon basically.

This ring was cast from white bronze. I am a bit too scared to use my small supply of 925 sterling silver but I will do it soon and I'll be sure to document it.

Special thanks to my filmmaker friend Gavin Gaitan for helping my shoot my first video.

Please do not attempt to recreate my methods without doing your own research and taking all necessary precautions. I have been screwing around and learning on my own and most likely do not know the best way to use these tools safely and efficiently.
