Intro

I am always after the next, new hobby. I'm a serial hobbyist. I try something, and do it not half badly, but then I get intrigued by something else, and I'm off again. So, after over 1/2 century of this behavior, I'm going to be stern with myself. My 'newest' shiny is anticlastic metalworking. My experience in metalworking? One introduction metalsmithing class at the local University Craft Center where I learned about safety and a youtube video. I kid you not.

So my goal is to do an anticlastic piece almost every day and record the results over the next year. See what I learn, see what happens, see the ideas, see what I do with it, see where it ends up! Wish me luck.

Day 13

I claim technical difficulties. I did my fold yesterday but am posting today EARLY BEFORE COFFEE.
Note: Do NOT accidentally lock me out of the house when the cookies are almost done. I don't react well.
The fold

oops

1:00pm - What can I say. We fought. It was going in opposite directions, just like I folded it.

Soldered and cozy with an ammonite
 2:00pm - Bubby showed me how he solders copper pipe. And then I play with his Dremel to clean up the solder and sharp parts. I think I'm in love with the Dremel!
