Copper and Bubble Wrap

Why is copper so cool? Because if it's annealed properly, it can even be textured with bubble wrap!

This piece of plate was annealed, then run through the rolling mill wrapped in bubble wrap. I really like that effect.

I rolled up the ends and then rolled it again through the wire feed wheels. Like that as well.

More Fun with Copper Samples

An other copper sample here. I guess it's clear by now that I prefer copper to brass or nickel or any of the other materials found outside the forge.

This one is just ball punched with a few different punches coming in from both sides. Corners rolled up to make it appear less sharp and threatening.

Fold Forming Copper Sample for EXM

Heres an other sample for EXM (exploration of materials for all you lamens)

This is just simple fold forming with copper sheet. I folded this over three times and ran it through the rolling mill to crease it on the folds. After its unfolded, the creases stay in as you can see.

Hammered over the rough edges and put a hold in it. Not sure why I put the whole there, I guess I thought I might make it into some sort of necklace. It's pretty ugly, though, so I'm not sure what I was thinking. I guess it's actually upside down.

This girl has absolutely mastered the plasma torch!

Great design. Would Love to copy this in Steel

I suppose it would be pretty difficult to copy the flexibility aspect.
