Ferris File-A-Wax Carving Wax in a 2-1/4" (57.2mm) diameter round by 7-1/2" (190.5mm) height. These carving waxes are used for making models to be reproduced by the lost wax casting process and have been the preferred choice of master carvers for years. Ideal for rings, cuff links, pendants, medallions, and much more. Each round is easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe. Burns out cleanly from molds, withstands rough handling, and will not soften in the hands. Available in five color-coded formulas to match your carving technique and project requirements.
