Copper is so easy to file and sand! Call me lazy but this is about all that's come out of my shop lately. Got this done between episodes on the roof, tuck pointing my leaning chimney... I'd rather be sanding!
Both are 1/4" copper. The first one I made 10 or 12 years ago and however he managed it my brother ended up with them. No amount of trying has ever pried them out of his hands, either. So finally I made myself another - they're the shiny ones with fingerprints.
After the pic I polished them up again and they're hanging in my shop now, acquiring that happy penny patina...
