Today in controversial tool takes - I love the Max Wax Pen, and I am not sorry about it!
Best is always a subjective term to describe jewelry tools. One person’s best tool can be a crap tool for another jeweler. If I leave you with no other information here, let it be that the “right tool” is the tool that’s right for you. Look, treat yourself to the $200 electric wax pen that plugs into the wall and comes with a rheostat to control the temperature if you like, but I absolutely adore this one. And for so many reasons! the ease of use, the portability, the lightweight feel, the fine and flexible control over the temperature, and the fact that I don’t have to worry about whether or not I left my wax pen on at night!
Now, you might be asking yourself, But Sharon, don’t you run a sustainable jewelry company? How do you justify something that eats so many batteries? The answer, dear listeners, is rechargeable batteries. Earlier this year, I bought myself a set of rechargeables, and those, combined with this wax pen make for an inexpensive start to your wax carving and sculpting.
This is a super polarizing topic for wax carvers and jewelers, with many of us falling firmly into one camp or another. Leave your opinions, comments, and questions in the comments below!
