Making Mokume from 1010, 1085 and copper

Could i mix copper and stainless steel to make a damascus billet?



probably not. just guessing tho. i believe its a bitch to forge ss and another ss, probably the same with ss and copper or close to it. not much ss damascus around (except damasteel) and damasteel is hard to manufacture too iirc.
 
Ariel makes SS damascus... even san mai :D

He's sick in bed, I'll try to call him later and ask him about the SS/copper thingy :)
 
Thanks for the info. Thats different from my friends way of making precious metals Mokume. She just did 3 colors of gold along with some silver I believe and made her and her husbands wedding bands. Inetersting to see the different ways people acomplish things.
