Firstly, apologies, it seems the only activity I contribute to on here is to pick you brains.
In my defence, I am about 6 months into this malarky and have no formal training, I get by with the help of youtube, books and 'at the bench'
I've just spent a few days up in Edinburgh and looked around a few galleries and am really taken by the style of Grace Girvan.
I'd really like to try and make something using a technique she uses whereby a shallow oval dish is formed, but it has a wider, flat edge, like this. The thickness of the dish material is about half that of the edge.
I'm assuming I can dome the dish with my round dapping punch into a sandbag, but I can't fathom how to form the edge - it's almost like some 'L' shaped strip around the periphery of the dish
If it is bezel strip it's beyond my capabilities at the moment. Can you but pre formed 'L' shaped bezel?
Thanks.
Martyn
