Mr. Hiroshi Tsuyuki, the Japanese authority on Jewelry Wax Modeling, uses an innovative approach to teaching the technique of wax modeling. Often a process is easier shown than described in so many words. This book was conceived through the author's teaching experience -- more photos and sketches and less text resulting in less over-the-shoulder supervision. By introducing new techniques in each project, his students were able to progress more rapidly towards independence in design concepts. While preparing a model for casting and the actual casting process are adequately explained in most casting books, very little space is devoted to the design and creation of wax models. Mr. Tsuyuki presents 11 basic projects in this book, each one designed to teach the use of certain tools and types of waxes in a progressive manner as one's skills improve. Each step of every project is accompanied by a photo and text and in some cases supplementary sketches and notes are provided to clarify those particular processes. Paying careful attention to the photos, noting the demonstrator's hand position and the type of tool being used, eliminates any confusion which may result from the text. After each basic model is completed the author offers a number of sketches suggesting design possibilities using the techniques learned in the construction of the basic model. Mr. Tsyuki states that by conscientiously completing each project, the student should be well on the way to becoming a designer/modeler. This book is 112 pages and has 283 photos and illustrations.

This book is a basic introduction to lost-wax casting with emphasis on jewelry making. It is designed to be used both as a textbook and a reference book and is directed primarily at beginners. Experienced casters, however, will probably find some useful ideas; they may even find some new techniques. Heavy emphasis is placed upon understanding why things are done in a particular way, rather than simply presenting a set of cookbook rules that will always work. The book is also available in a 8.5x11 inch comb-bound version for use in the shop or classroom. See ISBN 0-9679600-1-0.

Wax carving is like sculpture for jewellery and allows enormous creativity, as so many different forms can be made. This practical guide introduces the techniques to this age-old method through a series of guided exercises and projects, and demonstrates how exciting it can be. Drawing on the experience of two master wax-carvers, it also gives invaluable advice on the finish of your cast pieces and how to reproduce them. With over 400 colour photos, it give advice on setting up for wax carving, tools, tool-making and materials. There are exercises that introduce the beginner to using wax and then build ideas and confidence to try more complex designs. Included are advanced techniques that show how to use stones in a carving and how to add texture and surface detail. Finally, finished examples demonstrate the potential, excitement and versality of the method.

It has always been my ambition to produce a book and workshop manual on Lost Wax Casting incorporating all the knowledge I have gained in operating the process in various parts of the world for nearly 60 years. Now that I have sold my last business and retired, I have the opportunity to fulfill my ambition and to get all my experience down on paper, and give new and experienced casters alike a useful and informative guide to the process I have had the privilege to develop and work with throughout my life. I have now spent nearly a lifetime Designing and Manufacturing Jewellery using the Lost Wax Casting process, also producing Precision Investment Lost Wax Castings for Industry and researching and writing this book about this wonderful process which has occupied nearly my whole life and in spite of my many highs and lows during that time, I still feel that I would not have missed a minute of it. I have achieved something special in my life and it brings me great pleasure now when I am able to help someone with their casting problems and I look forward to hearing from you. Firstly I would like to introduce myself, I have been producing lost wax castings for over 50 years, man and boy, in the last 10 years, I decided I did not want all my knowledge to be lost when I die, so I decided to write this book and to put in all my life s experiences good and bad, in the early days the were Dental Mechanics using Lost wax casting to produce the metal parts of teeth, plates etc. and there were a few companies supplying Chemicals (Investment), Machinery, Hand Tools, Drills, Burrs, Etc. Etc, Etc. the one I worked the mostly with was a firm called Nesor Products as their family name was Rosen , In those early days they even agreed to manufacture machines for us, as we where much more involved in quantity rather than the Dentists, as the were mostly involved in 1 offs, as each item fitted mainly one patients, as many times, to make to Plates fit properly, the Dentist got the patient to bit on a special piece of wax, so that they obtained a near perfect fit, Then once we were in production, we used many different types of Chemical Companies, Engineering Companies, and with the Investments Suppliers. THE BASIC PRINCIPLE OF LOST WAX CASTING The problem associated with the first forms of casting, was the removal of the original pattern or model, therefore the process of lost wax casting is based on the use of a disposable pattern; which will burn totally away at high temperature, in an oxidizing atmosphere. It is possible therefore to cast from any vegetable matter that, after having been encapsulated in a suitable refractory type material, is capable of being burnt away at high temperature to allow the metal that you which to cast in to be melted and poured in to take its place. In lost wax casting, the chosen vegetable material will be wax, in the beginning Bees wax was used, the wax was modeled by hand but in more modern times many different waxes have been developed, some for carving the original model, which can be cast in metal, cleaned up and used as a production model from which are rubber mould is made if you are producing Jewellery, Ornaments or Statues, but in the case of Industrial Precision Investment casting instead of making a model and then producing a rubber mould from which the wax patterns are made, the mould is produced in metal, which gives much more accurate dimensions for the finished castings. The book is split into five sections, in which I will cover a wide variety of aspects of Lost Wax Casting: 1. History of Lost Wax Casting 2. The Theory of Lost Wax Casting 3. Step by Step Picture Guide 4. Workshop Manual 5. Autobiography All of the sections are designed to give you a through picture of where the Lost Wax Casting process came from, the various ways in which the process has been used, and how it is still used today in a myriad of industries, from Dentistry, through to Jewellery Making, and even in the production

Expands on the original work that first introduced artists and artisans to the materials, tools and techniques used to create original wax models for jewelry - both fine pieces and costume jewelry. The ancient method of lost-wax casting and traditional casting techniques of modeling in wax free that artist from many of the restrictions of traditional wax modeling, to provide greater freedom and spontaneity in creation, along with a newly achieved speed in execution. &break;&break;The author combines this understanding of the methods with his own practical experience to present the techniques in a concise, step-by-step format. He details the necessary materials and tools, and introduces the reader to their various characteristics and their roles in the jewelry-making process. He guides the artist through the various processes of wax modeling in several projects.

This book introduces the craftsman and the artist to an exciting new method for producing their work. Traditionally, the jeweler has been bound to making original models for lost-wax casting in metal, while the artist who works in wax has been limited to melting the material over an armature. Modeling directly in wax frees both artist and craftsman from these cumbersome and restrictive methods. A highly spontaneous approach, wax modeling combines speed with ease of execution to produce pieces whose grace and beauty can be attained in no other way.

Featuring exquisite photos of more than 800 contemporary and historic works, this first-of-its-kind book reveals how the process of casting--pouring material into a mold--has transformed our world through its history and omnipresence. In these image-rich pages, craft, fine art, design, and everyday objects offer us perspectives on casting's unique possibilities, its place in history, and its role in contemporary object creation. Comprehensive and insightful, the book includes writings on casting as it relates to Art History (by Suzanne Ramljak), Large-Scale Metal (by Joseph Becherer), Ceramics (by Ezra Shales), Glass (by Susie J. Silbert), Jewelry (by Jen Townsend), and Alternative Materials (by Elaine A. King). A multi-disciplinary approach--including everything from traditional lost wax casting in non-ferrous metals to casting rubber, glass, porcelain, plaster, and some very unexpected materials--makes this an essential resource for artists, craftspeople, historians, designers, and everyone interested in the objects that populate our world.
