The first project is completed. Yes, I admit it, this project was started last year but it was completed THIS year, so I am counting it.
Project Name: The Maru Bishamon Tool Canister
Material: Copper Tubing (1.5" ID, ~15g wall), Bronze Sheet.
Major Points:
Raised dome of bronze for the top.
Soldered dome, bottom bronze plate, and inner sleeve for a pressure fit.
Chased lines of design and deep chasing of intersecting lines.
Brushed (brass) for surface finish.
Sculpt Nouveau solvent dye in chased areas.

Lessons Learned: Use a slightly thinner copper pipe. Solvent Dye bled into the brass brushed lines.
