Thank you so much! Unfortunately, the shield was the only piece that came out in the casting. I've been thinking about making these again in 3D though.
Thank yoy for sharing. The list of reasons would take far to much ink to express. Several supplies i normaly buy directly I am going to start going threw your links for.
Thank you so much! That's a handpiece holder that I made myself but I believe Rio Grande sells something similar. Here's the link to theirs if you are interested: www.riogrande.com/product/holder-for-flex-shaft-handpiece/117263
Unfortunately, these didn't cast well for me. I tried casting them in bronze (my first time using bronze casting grain) and I don't think I had the metal was hot enough. The shield was the only one that came out. When I get the time, I plan on giving it another try. I might 3D model/print the pieces next time so I can have multiple attempts in case it goes wrong again.
Unfortunately, only the shield turned out on these carvings. The helmet and sword ended up breaking off of the sprue during the investment process. 😅 I've thought about trying these ones again but maybe 3D modeling them. It was a shame they didn't turn out, but that's just how it goes sometimes.
I made this one myself with a CNC machine. But I have seen similar ones online. Rio Grande has one that looks good too: www.riogrande.com/product/holder-for-flex-shaft-handpiece/117263#
I come here from seeing your blender vid, artist virtually artist in real life, love it!
Thank you so much! Lol My interests have always been all over the place. I might try 3D modeling some armor in Blender in a future video though!
Your channel is severely underrated!
lol thank you! I appreciate that.
It's entrancing to watch your work. I hope to be able to carve as good as you someday!
Thank you. I appreciate it 🙏 I'm hoping to do some wax carving tutorials in the near future if I can find the time! 😁

I want to do a Spartan shield out of wood. But I'm a beginner whitler and dont know where to start, I just have a knife, strop, and some wood.
Awesome! Carving one out of wood would definitely be a challenge but I'm sure it can be done with some practice. Best of luck with your project! 👍
Beautiful work! How did it look after cast?

Beautiful work. What is the liquid on the Q-Tip in the drill you are using to polish?
Thank you! That was odorless mineral spirits on the Q-tip. It works well for polishing the wax.
@@GraceNoteForge Appreciate the info, keep up the badassery!
Amazing!
Thank you!
Great video, what is the thing that you put on your Q-tip
Thank you! The liquid on the Q-tip was odorless mineral spirits. Works great for polishing wax.
Hi! Amazing skill!
Can you please mention the "shaft holder" you use? (00:30 and onwards)
Thank you so much! That's a handpiece holder that I made myself but I believe Rio Grande sells something similar.

Thank you for sharing your work! Very inspiring and also i learned a few things. What was the song?
Thank you for watching! The song is called The Long Walk by Jamie Norwood :)
@@GraceNoteForge Thank you!
What did you use with the buds!? Any solution or liquid!?
I use odorless mineral spirits. It helps with buffing the wax and giving a nice smooth finish 👍
Great video & amazing work. What is the micro iron you use to add wax?
Thank you so much! That was a Max Wax brand pen 🙂
Did you ever cast the Spartan helmet , shield and sword? I made the same set but larger scale out of cast resin. Your finish is much better.
Unfortunately, these didn't cast well for me. I tried casting them in bronze (my first time using bronze casting grain) and I don't think I had the metal was hot enough. The shield was the only one that came out.
When I get the time, I plan on giving it another try. I might 3D model/print the pieces next time so I can have multiple attempts in case it goes wrong again.
What rotary tool do you use?
What are you using to shine up wax when done! Thank💙You💜
I use mona lisa odorless mineral spirits to polish the wax. Thank you for watching!
Did you ever cast these? Interested to know how they turned out.

How did you make / where did u get your flex shaft mount? I need this in my life!
I made this one myself with a CNC machine. But I have seen similar ones online. Rio Grande has one that looks good too:

Wow great job, how long you needed for this pieces
Thank you! It took me a few days to finish all three pieces :)
