To start casting get yourself a good hunk of wax. I say a good hunk because you never know how much you need. Make sure to confirm that the wax mold won't weigh to much for the crucible. You can hollow it out if necessary.

You use the genie lamp to achieve the shape, design, and details you want. You always use this with the metal sculpting tools.

For finding out just how much pewter or brass beads you will need multiply the base number of the wax by twelve and add three for the container.

Now the sticky wax is tricky so you definitely need to use the genie lamp for this one. Start off by grabbing a casting container that will give lots of room for each side especially the top. Start by melting the wax to the base of your project and then melt the wax connecting the wax from the base to the button on the casting container. Branch off using the blue wax to ensure that your cast will look amazing.

To make the casting mold you need to create the liquid by mixing three parts mix and one part water. Only use cold water because it it heat activated.

Pour the casting liquid in slowly and around each side to ensure proper coverage. Make sure to get it into every crack and crevasse. If your wax floats to the surface wash it off and try again. Make sure your casting container has your name and class hour as well as how much it weighs.

After you fill up your container plug in the vibrating pad and hold onto your container while the pad does its magic. The pad is for making sure no bubbles or air pockets form.

This is used after the vibrating pad and completely gets rid of all air bubbles and pockets. It is used by managing pressure which is alarmed when you need to reduce pressure and increase pressure. When finished pop it in the kiln and let it dry. Write your name and weight of the wax on top of the container.

You have the choice between pewter metal and brass beads. Now I was a fool and chose the brass beads. I would highly recommend the pewter. You get how much metal you need by multiplying wax weight times twelve plus three.

Make sure your crucible is not too small or too big for your mold. Pour the metal in and get working. Wind the spinner up three times and put a stopper on it until ready.

Using the oxygen torch (Which can burn through steel) heat the metal up to a mercury like consistency. Constantly stir the metal to ensure no clumps or unmelted pieces. When every piece of metal is a liquid like substance grab the stopper and let it spin until all the metal is out of the crucible. Let it cool for a few minutes then pop it in the water.

After your metal is done cooling down and in the water take it out and grab a rubber mallet and rotate in your hand and hit every side until it comes loose. Wash off all of the casting residue and put it in the pickle if you want.

You can polish, dremel, or anything you want. Make it look the way that you want and remember every detail that you put on the wax prior to this will appear on this. The wax is your canvas.
