Copper Shim

We looked at heat treating copper shim and mesh with a chef's blow torch

Copper Mesh

This can be put through a ribbler and these two pieces have been passed through twice in different directions to create this interesting grid.

Alcohol inks can be added to the surface to provide interesting effects ...

As can be embossing powder in various colours

A glue gun can create an interesting blob which, when reheated, can have embossing powder applied.

All of these pieces can be machined stitched easily onto fabric.
