Lost Wax Jewelry Making: The Build-up Technique

One of the few books available on wax modelmaking; “Lost Wax Jewelry
Making: The Build-up Technique” by Minoru Azama, printed in Japanese
by Kashiwa Hobby Books. 1999.

Azama process emphasizes building up wax as opposed to starting with
a wax blank and carving away material. He uses this approach for
organic as well as geometric subjects. The potential of this
technique is unlimited!

Azama’s work is outstanding, some of it so very precise and
geometric that one would think it had been carved of hard wax. The
book was written for students at the Japan Jewelry Academy, and Mr.
Azama has been generous enough to write a complete English
translation.

Small Scale Photography

This eBook gives excellent lessons on how to set up a home or studio
photo booth to take professional-quality photographs and slides of
your jewelry or small objects such as ceramics, glass and so on.

Taking your own quality images saves money and time. The system (not
counting the cost of camera and tripod) costs less than 60.00$ to set
up. How to build a drop shadow photo booth, film types, lighting,
miniature spotlighting, composition, backgrounds, surface
understanding and image creation are covered. PR techniques are
taught and sources are listed. The ideas shared in this set can save
you hundreds of dollars in professional photographic fees and time.
