We actually had a jewelry making class in high school in the Bay Area in California and you are correct. We would make a wax version of a ring we wanted to make and then it would go into a plaster mold. I made a Green Lantern ring and it was so cool that it was stolen. 😢😊

Yes. Wax carving uses a hard opaque fine grained wax so you can see make fine detail, see that detail clearly and keep that detail unlike the soft flaky translucent wax used in candles where the light passing through thin sections makes details harder to see. For rings it comes as a convenient hollow cylinder so you don't have to remove so much material from the middle, although for rings like this which are oversized you'd need a larger than normal cylinder or a just a normal block.

Most jewelry makers have a process to recapture gold dust during that process. If you saw he was over an odd looking table while doing it, I would guess that is the purpose.

Melting two things together is not 'soldering'. You have to be using solder to be soldering.

If you're talking about adding the top plate to it, those small pieces of metal that they showed before doing it are solder. That's done when it's to small of an area to use traditional "wire" solder and an iron. You use flux on both pieces, small flakes of solder, and then heat them to melt the solder in an oxygen free environment and it sticks the pieces together.

@@fiestaturbo1287 No, I haven't, and you haven't either, and no, it doesn't. Look it up. Soldering literally defines as "to join with solder" and solder is "a low temp melting metal alloy". What you are talking about is a soldering iron used to melt wax, not a wax soldering iron. There is literally no such thing as wax solder. Just because you call it that, or someone else calls it that, doesn't mean it is correct. By definition of the word solder is metal, not wax, not plastic, not anything else, metal. I can lick a piece of paper and stick it to a window, it doesn't mean I glued it to the window. I could say I glued it, and most people would understand, but it's not factually accurate. I stuck it to the window. To glue something, you have to use glue, and saliva isn't glue, just like wax isn't solder. Anyone else who wants to comment and name similar statements as the two knob's i've already replied to, you are wasting your time. You are 100% wrong and I will not be responding anymore so save your finger strokes.
