Tools For a Lost Wax Shop Working with wax is an inexpensive and fun way to make jewelry, but turning the wax into metal requires a lot of tools and and can be expensive. Making a shop personal comes as you work with, and choose, different tools and waxes. Here are some tools and supplies I like and use.
An oxygen/acetylene torch is ideal for casting.
I prefer the cutting torch tip for casting.
You need a casting machine, this is a type of centrifugal machine I like, you could also use a vacuum also.
Vacuums are critical to get good detail on your casts, you use them when making molds. You can also use them for actual casting.
