Copper Serving Spoon
(+2 more dates)
Description
Craft a beautiful serving spoon from copper and steel that will last for generations.
In this class we start the morning by heating, tapering, texturing and twisting a piece of steel to form an ergonomic handle.
Next we will form and dish the copper with a variety of blacksmithing tools and techniques such at anvils, hammers, swages and heat. Finally, after a quick clean and polish, comes the time to unite the pieces with cute copper rivets.
