So I still have 2 more days!!! Day 1 Carve jewelry out of wax Day2 Finish carving and prepare mold Day 3 Cast and do stone setting It is VERY HARD lolololol I had no experience with any of this, like not even doing carving out of linoleum or anything. Thinking creatively this way is hard for me too. I have never applied my brain to a craft like this before The instructor Jason pictured in the middle is a true craftsman and he makes forming these perfect bevels with a wax file look effortless But it’s fun and I am excited to see how it turns out I did it with a friend so we carved and gabbed. Def bring a buddy! I created a VERY SIMPLE ring with a — o — dash dot dash design where the dot will be a gemstone That is “K” in Morse code

What kind of metal are you working with? I’ve always wanted to learn. I’m really into enameled inlays but that looks like madness

Wowww that’s cool. I like how you’re using a different part of your brain too. Share more progress photos as you go along I wanna see ☺️ Morse code is so smart too
