Introduction to Lost Wax Casting

  • Meltdown Studio 901 Rio Grande Boulevard Northwest Suite E-130 Albuquerque, NM, 87104 United States (map)

Discover the art of lost wax casting, an ancient technique that transforms hand-carved wax into lasting works of metal.

In this two-day workshop, you’ll learn the full process: carving original wax models, preparing and investing a casting “tree”, burning out the wax, vacuum casting molten metal, and finishing your pieces to a polished shine.

You’ll also have the option to recycle your own scrap silver or old jewelry, giving it a new life. By the end of the weekend, you’ll leave with several one-of-a-kind creations and the skills to continue casting in your own practice.

Perfect for beginners and experienced jewelers alike, this immersive class is a rare chance to watch your ideas take shape in metal.
