This brand new wax carving course has been designed to help you take your wax carving skills to a whole new level, by learning how to appropriately create a claw setting in your wax carved pieces.
This claw setting allows you to create a claw set design in wax, remove the stone for casting and then you will need to set the stone after casting into the wax.
As it is a one day course there will not be time for casting and setting the stone but you can follow up with our 1 day claw setting class to learn the process for setting claws.
As an intermediate level course, it is suggested that you've taken both Wax Carving 1 & Wax Carving 2 - Rub Over Settings to be able to get the most out of this class.
As this is a one day class the casting is not included in this class but you will be given recommendations on casting companies and what to do with your wax.
