You could use a cutting wheel on an angle grinder to undercut your groove so that the copper will grip better instead of using a gouge and hammer.

I'm thinking of giving my xxxxxxxxxx brother-in-law a knife for Christmas and I found a kit knife at the co. mentioned. Anyway I'm wondering what you all think of these kits? It's kit no BL 475C, A since I'm broke down and can't get around good anymore, I thought it would be something I could do sitting down. smitty Language was edited by Site Admin

Thanks for all of the great ideas, I need all of the help I can get. I understand about the round bar being boring but man I was proud of those leaves and figured 'man, I got this stuff, what's so hard about blacksmithing'. sigh, humbled down to a greasy spot. smitty

I have this good customer who wants a stand that she can put 3, 14" cake plates on. The 1/4" rods are for the uprights, kinda looks like the silowette of a bell. (how's that for some creative spelling). Anyway I forged some leaves for the top and figured that a collar would look good to hold the three uprights together. smitty

Thanks for the quick replies. And I know that I'm overworking them but I can't resist just trying to tweek it just a little more. My problem is I'm trying to collar 1/4" round stock. Just need to pratice, sigh. There ain't no free lunch. smitty

Can anyone help me with my collars? I've read many tutorials(sp) and still they come out beat all to h***! I know that I'm getting them too hot but if I don't then I get cold cracks.
