It is designed to be used both as a textbook and a reference book and is directed primarily at beginners. Experienced casters, however, will probably find some useful ideas; they may even find some new techniques. Heavy emphasis is placed upon understanding why things are done in a particular way, rather than simply presenting a set of cookbook rules that will always work. The book is also available in a 8.5x11 inch comb-bound version for use in the shop or classroom. See ISBN 0-9679600-1-0. Review: Great little book! - I love this book. I have dabbled before in making wax models for lost wax casting but decided in January that I would concentrate on this as my new year project. This book has been a very useful reference for when I have been having problems etc and I have even made one of the rings. Highly recommend. Review: Covers a lot of detail. - Good comprehensive coverage of the lost wax casting process. Filled in many of the blanks left in other reference works on the subject. Easy to read and follow, this is an excellent starter book on the subject and well worth the money for the time it will save. ## Features - Pages Count - 216.
