Since I missed two wax classes, I'm feeling like I need to make up and work at breakneck speed to produce more than one measly piece. I only have one more class left and I'm afraid I'm going to leave it brokenhearted if this happens. My alternative plan is to see if I can work one on one with the instructor to finish up the pieces once class is over.
These are two additional pieces I am currently in the midst of making:
 |
| Ring blank and design |
 |
| Design transfer |
 |
| Work in progress |
 |
| Work in progress |
One additional note: When I do this at home, I use a dremel. When at the studio, I use the appropriate tool, a foredom flexshaft. After an hour of carving at home today, I realized my hand was numb from holding the dremel (it's a little awkward and heavy). I decided that was my cue that it was time to take a break. If anyone feels generous and would like to donate a flexshaft and hanging stand my way, I'd happily accept. :)
