I was watching this on my phone and said out loud "That man has a hardy hole in his stump!". My wife screamed "What???". She asked what the hell I meant and whether it was something dirty. I told her that hardy holes can be very dirty but it depends on how much soot is involved.
Hello, I am attempting to outfit my studio with the proper equipment for raising bowels but I can't seem to find any companies that sell raising stakes, can anyone point me in the right direction. Much thanks! P.S. I have seen many small 6" and smaller raising stakes for jewelry making, these are much too small for my needs. Thanks again!
I just watched another video where the person used a small hand torch to anneal the copper, making it softer and more malleable. Have you tried that technique to make it easier to shape the copper?
Coppersmith this person has no clue raising is not a term forming copper is termed blocking or drawing you initially use a mallet and finish with a planishing Hamer total amateur

Any luck? It's been a year but have you tried searching local blacksmiths to see if one can be forged for you?
Very good master! Nice work! Thank you for video!!
how thick is that copper? 1mm?
What gauge copper are you using?
I'm curious about this too.
Is this technique proper to make a functional sounding small (splash) cymbal?

Likely the metal was annealed, either from the source or there in the studio.
Thanks 🙏
