Bought a wax carving kit from cooksons on black Friday. Finding it quite entertaining though taking away material is very differant from anything I've done before. This is my little bird yet to be separated from the block.

Thinking of leaving it rough. If I got 4 or 5 copies i assume the shrinkage would be negligible. I also carved a ring but I found all the cutting and filing hard going/ a bit too much for me. I'm wanting to add some 0.8mm wire detail to that one. Is it best to add it in wax or solder on after casting. Was trying to figure out how the heck I could do wire in wax!
