J W Bennett Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Forged these tonight. Petals are 14 gauge steel sheet stock, Thingy in the center is 1" copper pipe. Stem is 1/4" round stock and leaves are 1/8" x 3/4" flat stock. Finish is brass brush with second heat and clear coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstein Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Beautiful work! How did you seat the copper cup to the petals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J W Bennett Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Ironstien, I brazed the center cup to the stem. The petals are a tight fit on the stem and sit on a shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
