hotshot Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Still experimenting. Wanted to try to create some contrast for the gold (brass), and didn't have any "liver of sulphur" to create the patina, so I torched the Kennedy to oxidize it and turn it dark. When I put the seal on it, I think it may turn to a shiny black. Anyway, not sure if I like it yet, but it is always fun to experiment.

hotshot Posted April 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) For those of you that would like to do stuff like this, perhaps in wood instead of metal :-) Back in 2011, a couple of guys that hung out in the SSWC forum created an incredible tutorial. They presented a simple project (with sample patterns) and showed how to do these, and hide the entry hole. The tutorial is posted on one of their personal sites. If you want a simple fun project to try this on, give it a try.

I know the metal cutting blades don't last long,But probable even less with the sideways strain on them doing this type of project.My haty is off to your cut coin work.!
