How to get started
1. Choose the shape and size of your plate. Options include round, oval, triangular, and more.
2. Visualize your desired final shape, then use a machine to cut the copper sheet and smooth the edges with a file.
3. Heat the copper sheet with a blowtorch to soften it, and watch the color change.
4. Once the black oxide film is removed through acid-washing and cleaning, use a concave stand and hammer to shape it into a plate.
5. Finish! Feel the joy of having created something with your own hands!
