Wax rings
« on: April 11, 2014, 03:38:55 PM »
Hi guys
I wanna cast a couple of silver rings for the topaz I found at Mt Surprise. Is there a ozzie supplier for pre made wax rings ? I can find plenty from o-seas but none here in Oz.
Cheers

Rumble are you wanting actual finished waxes or are you looking at the tubes to cut your own (this way you have more freedom with stone size)?
Keep em comin!!!

Hey Mehoose
Yeah I was after the ready made wax rings and just cut a gem to suit.
The tubes and sticks of wax seem easy to find.

I have wax patterns for sale, $2.00 each plus postage, if you are interested let me know and I can send the catalogue to your email address, PDF format and 6MB
Custom gemstone faceting also lost wax casting in the precious metals.
