Strengths

For this project, I chose to do everything in one piece.
The final shape of the copper required me to offset my shrinkage swages to obtain one side longer than the other.
Then the shrinking could begin and continue to make my material rise while following my jig.
Once the planing was finished, I first drew all the lines of my embossing to mark them more and more strongly.
The last step was to patinate the copper; I sprayed it with a solution of chlorine and salt water before sealing it for about thirty hours in a bucket with ammonia inside, we got this bluish result.
