Copper Rose Template
Copper Rose Template - I have a 50# beaudry utility hammer with the markings u501. Meantime to get started, this is what i do if i get a complicated design for the first time. I am brand new to working with brass so i am taking a 6 x 3 x 3/16 piece of the material for bending to a shop that offers forming services. Stack the petal templates on a stem and start folding it up into the flower shape. I have it removed and the lining is held in place with 5 copper rivets. 060 (soft), h00 (cold rolled), h01 (cold rolled, high yield), h02 (half hard), h03 (three quarter hard), and h04 (hard).
I am brand new to working with brass so i am taking a 6 x 3 x 3/16 piece of the material for bending to a shop that offers forming services. The brass will be bent on a press break to a 90 with a 1 radius. Just heat evenly, don`t get it red, and give to joint a wipe with the solder stick every now and then until it flows then you ready to apply. Nip off the outter corners and shape to suite. 060 (soft), h00 (cold rolled), h01 (cold rolled, high yield), h02 (half hard), h03 (three quarter hard), and h04 (hard).
I am wondering if i should anneal the piece before taking it to the shop or am i being. The problem is that the jig has to be done by hand, so unless you have a template to make the template, you are not gaining much. I am brand new to working with brass so i am taking a 6 x 3 x 3/16 piece of the material for bending to a shop that offers forming services. Anneal the copper (heat it and quench it) whenever it starts getting too stiff. When making copper roses, most of the work is done cold. 060 (soft), h00 (cold rolled), h01 (cold rolled, high yield), h02 (half hard), h03 (three quarter hard), and h04 (hard).
You can stack 3 or more of these depending on how many petals you want the rose to have. When making copper roses, most of the work is done cold. Just heat evenly, don`t get it red, and give to joint a wipe with the solder stick every now and then until it flows then you ready to apply.
It Consists Of 99.9 Percent Copper, And Is Available In Six Tempers Designated By Astm B370 As:
Cut a circle, according to the size you want to make the rose, drill/punch a hole in the center for the stem and divide the circle into 4,5 or 6 pie pieces. Just heat evenly, don`t get it red, and give to joint a wipe with the solder stick every now and then until it flows then you ready to apply.

Hi i am a refrigeration mechanic , the best copper to copper solder is brown tip(15%silver) its much cheaper than silver solder(60%) and easier to use very little cleaning up no flux is needed. This is the simplest i've ever used. The copper most commonly used for sheet and strip applications complies with astm b370. Meantime to get started, this is what i do if i get a complicated design for the first time.

This is a copper rose i made from copper flashing. Texture the petals a bit. Once you get the hang of it , you will be making hooks or scrolls free hand without any template. The parts and 3 leaves are silver soldered together onto a small copper water tube.
