Thank you! I love that you're never quite sure what effect you'll get when you start, so there's always a bit of a surprise element to it!

your teaching is so appreciated, you share your processing in a way that really provides insight into the how and why you do what you do, which for me really helps cement my understanding. thanks!

Just a little comment on annealing and quenching. If you quench right after annealing you will harden your material. If you let it air cool for a few minutes before continuing it will be much softer and easier to work with. If you want it to cool faster than air cooling, you can put it between two pieces of cooler metal. It really doesn't take that long to cool to workable temperature.

Thank you Kathy! Yes this is a nice easy way into chasing, without having to figure out where to get and how to use pitch. Just grab your hammer and some sheet and have a go!

Message for Susan Mackenzie: Thanks for the comment. For some reason, KZbin won't post my reply on your comment, so I'm hoping you might see this. I use a hand-held micro torch, which is a perfect starter torch. Mine is a Soldertech one from Cookson Gold, but if you search for 'butane gas micro torch' you should be able to find something similar.

Have you ever experimented using a hand held automotive air hammer? At first you may gasp. But I use one often to forge small details in steel. The tools that come with the hammer are easily modified.

@LilyTree7 жыл бұрын
Thank you! I got this vice from JewelleryMaker (I used to work with them) but I don't think they've had any in stock in a long time. Try checking out your preferred selling site, and searching for 'mini vice' The jaws on mine are 50mm wide, but it might be worth looking at options for wider ones to give you the flexibility to use wider sheet.

I don't see why you couldn't do this with silver. I haven't used silver sheet very much, but I should imagine a similar gauge would work.

Love your video! Do you use a finishing spray to protect the copper from tarnishing? If so, what product do you recommend?
@LilyTree4 жыл бұрын
I have been using Protectaclear by Everbrite for quite a while, and it seems to hold up well. I believe it is possible to get in spray form, but it isn't available in the UK. I really must look into all the possible options at some point, though.

Thanks for the video, as always! Do you work-harden the sides between every round of forging in the vice? I managed to collapse mine in the second round after the anneal.
@LilyTree6 жыл бұрын
You're welcome! I haven't work hardened the sides, but it might be worth a try. It is very soft and 'collapsable' after annealling, so I've just tried to be careful over where I start hammering again. If you find it has gone badly out of shape, you can anneal it, then open it up a bit and fold it back into a rounded shape again.

Thanks! I'll give it another whack (or two).
