I tried slicing in to it using a scalpel and then using a saw to hack away at it, but this was a little too harsh on the wax and didn't want to risk slicing off the wrong bits. so, I got a small device from one of the casting technicians that gives off a constant flame that I used to keep heating the scalpel and other various metal tools, making it a lot easier to slice through the wax. The other more rounded tools were good to remove any bits of plaster and silicone that had got wedged in the wax, as I could use them to scrape them off then heat it up and blend over the blemished surface.
