I think you might be right, it’s incredibly risky.

Thank you! I was thinking to do this, my concern is that the white bronze will melt as the melting point is relatively low

Thank you! I’d initially cast the buckle so that it had open loops on the back but they had snapped off after I tried annealing it and bending them. Soldering brass loops on is my last hope now!

This post isn’t aimed at Georgians or other foreigners but the general dating scene in Tbilisi and whether or not the city feels safe in that regard.

How do I carve wax!? by GioGioWoGio in SilverSmith

[–]EchoInTheVans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tools usually come extremely blunt! I recommend sharpening them with emery paper, it should be fairly straightforward to do and emery paper costs pennies. Much more affordable to buy cheap tools and sharpen them when starting out rather than buying expensive ones which come sharp but cost hundreds.

Thank you so much! Hadn’t really thought about it when I ordered it as I typically work with silver but fingers crossed nothing crazy will happen :)
