I order my supplies from all over the damn place, so I often have to wait a small eternity for them to turn up on my doorstep. Of course, the worst thing for a silver smith to run out of is silver, so I decided to take my newfound love for big and relatively simple shapes into the realm of copper, which I can get easily and cheaply and can have a play with without worrying about ruining something potentially expensive.
My "Buzz, Buzz, Buttercup" pendant is one of the first large bits of copper that I've played with. Copper is a fairly friendly material to work with, especially while cutting. I can hardly describe it at anything but slightly more "powdery" than silver under the blade. Cuts are quicker.

Check them all out in the shop!
