  • In this video, I show my process for carving a shield ring out of wax. This piece will later be cast in metal using the lost wax casting process. I'm using matt carving wax for this model and odorless mineral spirits to polish the finished carving.

    what liquid did you use to smooth the surface with the cotton bud?

    • @GraceNoteForge
      @GraceNoteForge  10 місяців тому +1

      That was odorless mineral spirits 😁

    Always helps to get a reminder that precision is (and always has been) achievable by handwork. Loved the music track as well, brought back old SCA memories. Is there a way to find out the track, or is it your own?

    • @GraceNoteForge
      @GraceNoteForge  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you! The music track is from Epidemic sound. It's called Where the Thistle Grows by Bonnie Grace.

    Great work mate !! what's the thing you do at the end after the sandpaper ??

    • @GraceNoteForge
      @GraceNoteForge  8 місяців тому

      Thank you! After sanding, I applied some odorless mineral spirits (that's what was on the Q-tip) and then buffed the surface to give it that glossy finish. 😁

      I plan on showing the casting process in another video. There's a bit more that I'd like to do to the ring first 😁

    Great video and the ring came out perfect. I would like to ask if you could tell me the name of this tool 1:48 (English is not my native language)

    • @GraceNoteForge
      @GraceNoteForge  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you for watching! That is a wax ring reamer used for sizing the ring.

    Thanks for the video, and great work! Two tools you're using at 5:27 and 6:47 I haven't seen before. Did you make those, or what are they called?

    • @GraceNoteForge
      @GraceNoteForge  8 місяців тому +2

      Thank you for watching! They are both homemade. The one at 5:27 is a little graver type tool for cutting in groves and the other at 6:47 is just a little scraping tool. I have a separate video on my channel, showing how I made them if you're interested 😁
