COPPER LOVE 🧡

There were some lovely copper pieces made in the workshop last term. One of the best things about this lovely metal is all of the beautiful colours 🌈

RECYCLING SILVER ♻️

In the workshop we have talked a lot about melting silver for reuse. This is a low tech process if you don’t have loads of fancy equipment. 1 will become wire and 1 will become sheet

Some tips below 👇

♻️ Use a charcoal block. You can scratch out texture or burrow out sections to help control the shape.

♻️ Use clean scrap for the best results. Thes are all offcuts from other projects.

♻️ Make sure you use the appropriate torch/flame. This handheld is mightier than it looks. Bigger isn’t always better.

♻️ Keep it to a reasonable size. Don’t melt all of your scrap in one go, it’s much harder to get a usable piece.

♻️ Always hammer the piece before trying to put it through the mill. You will usually see cracks appear if there is any contamination.

♻️ Anneal in between hammering/milling

We will share what these become in another post.
