Thanks to many of you who gave your input to the process of tinning copper.
I've ended up incorporating several tips, and of course I'm still
practicing.


I posted a couple of pictures of a larger olive bowl I recently did.  For
these large pieces I am doing them now in my kitchen oven.  I annealed the
hell out of my earlier pieces by using my torch.  The copper pipe stuffed
with stainless brillo is very cool.  So is a large large wad of paper towel,
but you have to be fast.


Thanks again,
