Learn to move metal using traditional techniques of chasing (moving metal from the front or top) and repoussé (moving metal from the back side to push forward), which date back to the third century B.C. We’ll learn how to saw, file and anneal with the torch. You’ll also make basic chasing tools to take home with you for your own practice. With spring in mind, we’ll create a flora or fauna object or a small piece of jewelry.
