I work in it all the time.
For example, if someone wants a ring and there is no wax model for it, I carve one out. It gets the design, the size, I preset stones that can take heat. From there, it gets sprued, then invested, then cast. From that point it goes into my vibratory tumblers. From there, I set the heat sensitive stones.
Badabing, Badaboom. A one of a kind whatever.
I prever the blue wax for rings, the green for bracelets. What you make, so will you cast.
