Copper Bowl in a Day Workshop Sheffield South Yorkshire

Description

Learn how to make a copper bowl in just one day at Studio Budgie Galore. This class is a great introduction to working in copper sheet to hammer form your own unique bowl. With guidance from your tutor, you will learn how to heat and form copper from a flat disc into a beautiful bowl. You will learn blocking and sinking techniques to raise the bowl using specialist hammers and a sandbag. You can decide on the bowl shape, either shallow or more curved to create a truly unique piece. You will then learn how to planish the bowl to create an even hammered surface. Finally, you will learn to heat colour or polish your bowl to a mirror finish, based on your preference. The workshop is fun, educational and engaging. It requires no prior experience, but it is also appropriate for individuals with previous jewellery and metalworking experience who wish to enhance their skills and understanding of hammering, raising, forming and heat colouring. Please note • It is recommended that you bring reading glasses for close work. • please wear sensible shoes in the workshop (no open toed shoes) • we recommended bringing an apron if you have one or that you wear old clothes
