ArtMetal NextGen ![]() Angel has become fascinated with the anvil. He found out about twisting 12 gauge copper wire and then proceeded to hammer it out to create an interesting cross wire look. He's currently working on several rings using the same construction. He's learning about metal stresses and is getting a feel about when to anneal. His "twisty" stuff is getting more consistent. He seems fascinated by this small scale forging. Angel was the first to experiment with the beeswax. He was pleased when the piece got "not sticky." |
