John has taught a number
of classes at both Wildacres and William Holland Workshops.
His class will cover basic vacuum casting and wax working
techniques, including proper methods of attaching sprues,
investing, burnout, casting, and final finishing of a piece
of jewelry. The class also includes mold making, and gravity,
steam, vacuum, and centrifugal casting. Steam casting may
be demonstrated and experienced. John will have gold and silver
available for purchase as well as some commercial patterns.
Students may bring their own gold and silver to recycle if
they wish. John recommends that each student bring an OptiVISOR
and if they have one, a Foredom or flex shaft, since the school
does not have enough for each student to have one.
LAB FEE: $25.00 will be
charged to cover consumables and some waxes.
Maximum No. of Students:
6
Pre-requisite: None
