Enamel Prep

Making copper blanks that will be enameled and then made into earrings and pendants.

I sawed a piece of 24gage copper into half inch sections of different heights.  

Once I drilled holes and cleaned each piece using 3M rotary bristles on the flex shaft I tied the match pairs with thread to keep them together.

Here are the larger pieces I plan to enamel during class this afternoon.

The bowl needs to be re-enameled.  I made it last summer but didn't get a chance to do enough enamel layers.  Time to finish it!
