[TheForge] Copper

[Jeffrey L Jones]

To all on the list,
I have a job coming up where I need to clad a large door with plates of
copper.  I will be using about a 16 gauge or slightly heavier thickness. 
Having never worked with copper before I have three questions. 
 
1) What is the best way to cut copper and maintain tight tolerances?

2) A finish is required that is dark brown like an old penny, but with
streaks like something dripped down the face and tarnished the once
bright copper.  How do I get such a finish?

3) Finished panels will be adhered to the door face without any visible
fasteners (i.e. glue).  What is a good adhesive to permanently fix copper
to wood?

Thanks,
Jeffrey Jones
