Default Intro (attempt 2)

Hey AllMetalShapers,

I took a blacksmithing course several years ago which fueled my interest in metalwork and gave me a few good ideas. I'm joining the forum though because I'm interested in working copper and other soft metals mostly for decorative and accessory items. I also am interested in working with steel panels for a long-time project I have neglected, my 1965 Econoline pickup that I drive sometimes in its ratty state.

Looking forward to learning from you all!

Hello Jason and welcome to the forum.

Have you tried Fold Forming copper?

Take a look at my web site. I have several items for Blacksmiths.
