Wax carving tip from @ratbetty obsessed with this ring 😆

“Ppl ask me about how I carve so here is a snippet of my carving process, I saw similar techniques online and it’s the method I persisted with and enjoy most for its intricacy. I also love doing 3D carving but it hurts my brain more.

l use a long stick and poke needle which I attached to a pen it’s my most used diy tool I could deffo make it better and easier to grip but works for now!! I print a load of templates just like in tattooing and figure out the best size for the piece. Once the template is transferred to the wax I use a few of wolf tools and my precious scalpel to do the rest!”

Thank you so much for sharing your technique with our community. I love your DIY tool, and this method is a great technique that doesn't require any expensive tools.
