Discover the joy of working with copper whilst producing creative items using a range of techniques from traditional hollowing and planishing to fold forming.

Copper Bashing for Beginners is a skills based 1-day course introducing students to the basic operations for working with copper through a couple of projects (copper dish with a silver soldered ring as a base and samples of fold forming techniques). This is an intense course over a day with very little spare time but students are encouraged to come with a simple project idea to use the newly learnt skills, time allowing.
