To All,
Lost wax had its beginnings with what ever natural waxes were found. The
modern waxes are "alloys" of different waxes with different hardnesses and
melting points. Different waxes are used for the gating, risers and bodies.
There are waxes for carving, casting, etc. Most jewelery supply houses have
all the different waxes you will need.
