I started work on my filling again.Here's a photo after some taking off the wax mold. It's not perfect.. I have a few air bubbles, but I'm told that's normal for a first try. This is after some work with a file and sandpaper.
Here I've worked it down to the surface level and wet the edges so you can see them better. It's really messy work. Brown dust everywhere.
Finally I have to get the filling at a level just slightly below the level of the rest of the pot using a scalpel. This is a nice detail of my air-bubble failure.
