I would like to learn the art of lost wax jewelry casting

Can anyone point me in the right direction for resources for lost wax jewelry casting?

Just keep your eye on the calendar All type of casting classes are coming up
Casting is a new area for jewelry and we are ironing out issues, )like blowing a
circuit breaker|

I do some casting classes but got sidetracked from my expected schedule so the classes got pushed out a few weeks. If you are interested in casting I sometimes am there Fridays in the daytime if my flexible work schedule doesn’t ask me to work. Then I’ll do a day on Saturday or Sunday. Right now I’m getting waxes made for lost wax casting but might be persuaded to do some sand casting sometime.

I am a model rail-roader and can use some help with some investment casting projects.

Cast parts will be from both free machining or leaded brass and nickel-silver.

Is it possible to create wax patterns direct on our 3-D printers?

I will also be creating patterns and/or molds in our machine shop. I need assistance calculating exact shrinkage suitable to our equipment.

Are we also sand casting?
