Default Re: copper practice plate

That looks great.
Here is a piece done on Bronze, it is a damascene detail of some gold and silver work on a 700 year old door in the Ali Hussein Mosque in Cairo.

Wink Re: copper practice plate

So Sddd, how did you cut that, hammer and chisel or power graver? All good things come to those who wait. waiting is no fun but it is true. I am a little bit of an instant gratification person.
