Sculpting With Jeweler's Wax

Video Transcript

"One of the reasons that I'm using this kind of wax, you can use other kinds of wax, but this kind of wax that's used in your candles is not going to be ideal. It's just not fine enough grained jewelers wax is a very fine grain, it comes in different harnesses this happens to be the hardest of the three different harnesses, there?s hard medium and soft but the reason I like to use jewelers wax is because it has a very high melting temperature. This can be left in your car and even though it may get up to 110 degrees in the summer in your car from the sun it's not likely to melt this. It's low enough in melting temperature that even a simple candle is enough to melt it, but it's just a solid really tough stuff. This is the same stuff that is used in order to create wedding bands and fancy rings. They have a lost wax process, can be had at any jewelers store."
