Synopsis
Metal is a marvelous material, but until recently it's been a foreign currency among general crafters, who feared that "metalworking" required pig iron, a blast furnace, and the musculature of a village blacksmith. Not true. Here are 50 gorgeous things to make from extra thin sheet metals and foils in shimmering copper, aluminum, brass, tin, and pewter. And, just for fun, there are projects from mesh, tin cans, flashing, wire, ready-made metal objects, recycled materials, and found metal. Readers will learn about useful tools and basic techniques for working with metal, none of them esoteric. They'll learn to mark, drill, cut, smooth, bend, and form metal, along with some easy ways to decorate it--hammering, punching, piercing, stamping, and embossing. They'll learn easy means of attachment, such as soldering and Pop-riveting. They'll discover how to apply paint and patinas. Then, they'll choose among 50 diverse, easy-to-make projects and proceed to create as many stunning objects as they like. Between projects, they'll browse through a gallery of beautiful metalwork by expert designer/crafters., This work contains 50 manageable metal craft projects, including Personal Effects, Toys and Whimsy and Boxes and Bowls, which require only everyday handtools, normal craft supplies and a few household items., "These projects involve lightweight metalwork, i.e., they...don't require heavy cutting and soldering.... instructions cover materials, tools, and techniques followed by step-by-step projects by 26 contributing designers....projects include picture frames, containers, and some rather unusual jewelry. They are all good fun and can be assembled with pop rivets or small soldering tools. Public library patrons will welcome this book."- Library Journal . "Easy-to-make projects using a variety of materials."- Publishers Weekly .
