This is a beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. Just a quick one. Which ferris red wax have you used? Is it the injection red wax or the mould a wax tub red soft malleable wax?

[@Rovertjeronnie]

What wax pen carver are you using?

Do you do the casting yourself?

[@empyrean.knight]

This may be an obvious question but I’d like to ask nonetheless. You have smaller tubes for smaller rings right? Or do you just size them later?😊

[@BitcHazel]

No, unfortunately. It's actually a little-known fact that all metal factories only produce a single size of tube. This has a significant impact on our business, making it incredibly challenging to craft rings efficiently. We spend countless hours resizing these tubes for every ring size, which is both time-consuming and exhausting. It’s a constant struggle to meet deadlines and manage our workload. If only there were different sizes available, it would transform our workflow and allow us to focus more on creating beautiful jewelry rather than battling with resizing tubes all day. 😞😞

What kind of paper sheet have you added around the steel cylinder? I'm struggling with my wax falling off before I'm able to connect the ends haha

Does the stone stay in while it gets cast or do you remove it first?

[@fromisla1227]

I remove the stones before casting

[@CB-eq5hi]

@@fromisla1227 how do you remove the stone to not deform the wax?
