Class Description

Description Cancellation Policy

Description

Learn the traditional and contemporary technique of lost wax casting, one of the most versatile methods for creating fine jewelry. In this hands-on 4-week course, you will carve detailed designs in wax, create professional molds from your wax models, and then cast molten silver or gold into those molds to produce finished metal jewelry pieces. This process, perfected over centuries, allows jewelers to create intricate, precision-crafted designs that would be difficult or impossible to produce using other metalworking methods.

All materials, equipment, and tools needed for the 4-week course are provided in the classroom, including up to 1 ounce of silver per student. This class is ideal for anyone interested in jewelry making, whether you are a complete beginner or someone looking to expand your metalworking skills into a new medium.

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    Scott is very knowledgeable and clear. I liked the introduction to wax, and I especially appreciated the way in which he encouraged me to explore different ways to achieve the design I wanted until I found a method I was comfortable with. The class can be large, and the pace is fast, so be prepared! But you can learn a lot and make something that's unquestionably your own.

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    As someone totally unfamiliar with carving or sculpting in any medium I needed more 1-on-1 explanations of many of the wax shaping tools and methods to execute my idea and Scott was very accommodating of this. I went a few times during studio hours for extra assistance and happily accepted his help in adding the sprues to my pieces for me so I could catch up and move onto the next step and he did an amazing job. My first time getting to cast was so fun! Scott's safety tips and guidance made me feel at ease. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone wanting to make their own pendants/rings/miniatures/etc out of metal.

    Teacher is scattered, disorganized and a terrible communicator.

    I really wanted to get into jewelry making and found the class Bushwick Jewelry Casting. Absolutely amazing! It taught me a lot about lost wax casting and what goes into making jewelry. Really glad I took it and love Scott the instructor!

    Scott is an excellent teacher! I gained a great understanding of the wax casting process and got hands-on experience every step of the way. I came out of the class with cast silver jewelry (which I love). Would recommend to all.

    Scott is so knowledgeable and patient; I can't wait to become a member! The piece that he helped me make is beyond my imagination; I am so pleased. Thank you, Scott :)

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    This casting class was great for my first experience of working with silver...I made an amazing piece that Scott carefully and thoughtfully guided me through. The class was full, but Scott is a professional metal smith and adeptly handled the students, the tools and materials for the final casting.

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    Three stars because I was able to, for the most part, achieve the goal I had for the course. Nothing against Scott as a person, but as a teacher he needs to figure out a better time management method. Every lesson was very rushed, casting day was very hectic which felt borderline unsafe. I don’t really feel I got my money’s worth considering how rushed and frantic everything was rather than a studio course with time to experiment and ask questions and learn the process.

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    This was a wonderful class. The instructor is great and helps as much as you need it. The other students were very interesting and encouraging, too. I'm looking forward to taking another one of Scott's classes. I'm hooked.

  • Intro to Jewelry Casting

    Scott is very down to earth with a great sense of humor. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Though the class moves quickly, Scott provides one-to-one support and guidance. I thoroughly enjoyed the class, learning to use different equipments and honing my creativity. Well worth the price and I will definitely take this class again.

    He is a good man and I am hoping to take more classes with him.
