    Default want to attempt jewelry making

    I Have watched a few tutorials on youtube and nearly all of them are rings but what i want to know is how would one make some beard jewelry as the tube style of seems awkward to make and what would be the best method for making a mold as i was told the clay mold would not work very well ?

    I am assuming you can use clay to make the design and mold it to a metal and then make it clean and use that as a new mold ?

    You can use low temperature resin moulding material, such as the softer type of Fimo to make a mould and then use that for metal clay. Dennis.

    What does beard jewellery look like? I use delft clay for casting but it only works for moulds that are split in two halves.
