Default lost wax / life casting

i've only been doing this since August 2004, so be nice!

but a lot of my customers and people in other groups wanted to know
more about my 'metalsmithing' and especially the lost wax/life casting
i've been working on. so, we took pictures and we're putting together
a narrative.

the pictures of the process are online. the narrative for day one is
complete. day two is coming.

and yes, i know the images aren't showing up properly on the left -
the links work - i'm still fighting with M$ to get the rest of it to
look right! **sigh**

how i got started with all this is a separate story for another time!
