If you have any spare electrical wire...this is good to. Strip the coating off to reveal the copper...and away you go ! You'll be metal smithing in no time ! have fun !

The hammered effect is great.<br />We'll earn a bit of money next week, perhaps you could spend that...<br />The socks have come out well, I'd like to examine them properly although I'll never manage any of my own.
