Copper Bashing for Beginners

Lucille Scott is an experienced teacher and blacksmith who runs regular blacksmithing courses in Little Duck Forge at Eastney Pumping Station throughout the year.

Copper bowls and simple copper forms using fold forming techniques

The day course will look at basic sheet metal skills including the new art of foldforming, traditional hollowing and planishing to make a simple bowl, we will then use these skills to make an object like a candle holder although the choice of project is entirely up to you. To complete the main project of the day we will have to use various joining methods including riveting and soldering.

The day will be a chance to let the material lead you into new forms and ideas.

Maximum of 4 students 9.30am until 5pm
