[TheForge] Coloring steel

Thu Jan 9 12:52:01 2003

I watched and taped a demo by Nana Schowalter (SP), Blanchardville, Wisc. at
the guild of metalsmiths were she used paint to do a faux patina that looked
quite convincing.  I would have to go back to the tape for more details,
which I don't have the time to do or you could own/rent it from the library
at www.umbaonline.org Two blatant self centered adds from two different
smiths on the dame day.  What is the world coming to.

Shannel I did get your tape request and will continue working on them.
