How do you make them?
First you make the wood version, then perhaps put wax over it to get a mold, and then put the metal fluid/resin in the mold? Is that right? It looks intruiging and I'm totally loving the designs. My favorite is 'curly' one on the far right Amazgin work!

Thanks! I make first the wood prototype, then I create a silicon mold that is reusable and finally I put the metalfluid in the silicon mold...Soon I'll try to sell some of these pendants on Etsy!

Thanks for the reply! It makes sense. Silicon is probably much stronger.
When do you use wax? or perhaps you don't use it
What tools do you have to cut the wood? They'd have to be pretty small to get detail in to the wood, no?

No, I've never used wax...bicomponent silicon is a mold that you can use almost indefinitely, if you don't use it for strange things
For my works I usually use a chip-carving knife for 99% of time, sometimes I use mini-gouges

Fantastici lavori!
Metalfluid, che genialata, è da tempo che li tengo d'occhio, prima o poi li proverò anche io

si da provare assolutamente Io lo uso per fare ciondoli partendo da prototipi intagliati da me...è un'ottima soluzione per pezzi piccoli e sottili, il Metalfluid gli da più resistenza e peso...per i pezzi un po' più grossi invece preferisco ancora la resina, col Metalfluid risultano un po' troppo pesanti...
