BISHOP DOYLE'S PECTORAL CROSS > POLISHING & FINISHING WORK

WORKING UNDER MAGNIFYING LAMP
WORKING UNDER MAGNIFYING LAMP

I do much of my work under a magnifying lamp. Many details are created in the wax stage that are not noticeable to every naked eye. The curly-Q hair on the lambs is an example of such detail. I have to use caution while finishing not to polish off some of the fine details as all finishing steps are removing metal to some degree.

In this photo I am using a knife edge rubber wheel abrasive to clean and refine the design details.
