John has been doing Lapidary work since the early 1960's. He started off with cabbing, then bench work silver, and then lost wax casting, and later started teaching casing about 20 years ago. He set up the first vacuum casting class at William Holland. He teaches both gold and silver casting for beginners. He is a member of the (Georgia Mineral Society) and one of the founding members of the (Meteorite Association if Georgia).

CLASS DESCRIPTION

This is a class for beginning students. No prerequisite required. You will be able to make jewelry prices from pre-made pieces and also create jewelry (pendants, rings, etc.) out of your own wax creations. We may even do some casting with organic material such as acorns, ferns, and perhaps even spiders. We will be casting in silver. If you have any old silver jewelry or scrap silver, bring it to be recycled. We can also cast in gold - but due to the high cost of gold, I will not have an inventory of gold for sale. I will have silver - both fine and sterling available for purchase.

LAB FEE:There will be a class fee of $60, which will cover the cost of waxes, wan sheets and other consumable supplies such as investment.

Maximum No. of Students: 7

Pre-requisite: None
