purchase.
Copper and Bronze sheet in 24 gauage – bring your own or purchase from me (6x12” - $7.50)
You will be using very specific hammers for foldforming. I have purchased enough for the class and have modified all the peens to save time. They
will be available for purchase at $42 each. There may be some available to borrow. Also, you may already down the proper hammer so bring all
double-peened hammers in your tookbox, specifically 200 and 300 gram ones.
You will need a block anvil to work on. I have some for sale – and a couple of 8x10” block anvils for the class to share. Having your own is best, a
6x6” block if possible.
Rules, sharpies, both fine and wide liners, paper shears, old manila folders for paper models.
Handtools like flat nose pliers, needle nose pliers, nippers and most especially half-round pliers.
Graph paper and notebook for designing.
There will be two books being used for the workshop – there will also be handouts. I have studied extensively with the masters who invented these
books already, and I will have some available at a reduced rate for those who do not already own them. $ ?
Safety glasses required *** Earplugs are a must!! Mask if you are lung-compromised.
Sandbag and tooling stamps for decorative embellishment, if desired.
Leather gloves for holding metal for sinking/forging – I use padded bicycle gloves.
Sandpaper in various grits from 220 to 400
I will be contacting all students prior to the class to assess their needs for the class. I am willing to get any supplies for you. Purchasing in bulk saves
in both cost and shipping.
