Complicate...

The theft issue is not neccessarily something you need to worry about or else all the bronze statues and copper roofs would need to be locked down. I do know that copper theft is rampant in some communities.

Alot will depend on what sort of work you plan for this projct. Some metals lend themselves to certain designs and techniques. Red brass is nice to work with and takes on a patina well. I love working with copper due to it's maliability and color.

What is the scale of this proposed piece?
