I guess that calls for an excursion to a piece were I brazed copper to stainless, polished the stainless and then patinaed the copper about 6 years ago.
It has been sitting outside for the last 4.
it was mainly a materials study piece.
hmmmmm where is that camera . . . .
hmmmmm stone base is frozen down to a stone table; it will have to wait til I can get it out of the corner.
So, prey for warm, and I'll catch it.
one nice thing about copper and stainless as a pair is that their coefficients of expansion are almost the same.
stainless on copper. . .
good question nelson
