I have made the copper crown which is blackened and polished. Making this copper crown help me to understand how to solder and control flame. It was tricky to solder all the pieces together cause I was soldering the small nozzle of the torch and I had to change it so that it can release a bigger flame. I learnt that have to sand paper all the pieces first before soldering because I did not clean them. It made realize that when working with big scale made me realize that I had to think about am I going to polish this piece after it was soldered. After finishing this crown made me want to make more of the big pieces of jewellery because I was working on the small scale.
