<p>“I highly recommend this book of technical information and procedures for anyone wanting to learn wax modeling techniques… this book is clear and well organized. Good large step-by-step explanatory black and white photos illustrate the points made in the concise, strictly informational text. This is the second in a series of books on professional wax working for lost wax casting. It might be useful to have read the first volume - ‘Basic Wax Modeling’ before this volume but it is still a good stand-alone text” - Charles Lewton-Brain (internationally known lecturer, author, designer, inventor of Fold-Forming) from his review on Ganoksin.<br />
In this book jewelry wax modeling techniques are introduced and explained in detail, illustrated with step-by-step photographs. Some special features of Practical Wax Modeling include: a) Practical applications when using a variety of waxes b) Mitsuro and its uses c) Demonstrations of a variety of textures d) Methodology of finishing castings. Practical Wax Modeling was written as an applied compilation for the book "Basic Wax Modeling" (ISBN 9780997979879).<br />
In this printing of “Practical Wax Modeling” by Artisan Ideas all of the original B&W photos have been improved using the latest digital technology, the typeface has also been changed and improved and various corrections to the original text have been made.
