Lost Wax Casting

LOST WAX CASTING

Old, New and Inexpensive Methods

Fred R. Sias, Jr., Ph.D

This book is a basic introduction to lost-wax casting with emphasis on jewelry making. It is designed to be used both as a textbook and a reference book and is directed primarily at beginners.

Experienced casters, however, will probably find some useful ideas; they may even find some new techniques.

Heavy emphasis is placed upon understanding why things are done in a particular way, rather than simply presenting a set of cookbook rules that will always work.
