Suggestions on what to make from bronze

[HillBill]

Hi folks.

I'm going to have a play making some things from Bronze, but i aint got a clue what to make.

Looking for suggestions if possible, nothing too big though. Possibly upto the size of a small knife, though it doesnt have to be a knife. I thought about making some bronze arrowheads and probably will, but all suggestions welcome.

Challenge me

Thanks
Mark

A spoon, fishing lure, pretty bird scarers, glasses rims, earings, a bowl, blanket pin, hair clip, a cup

 

[HillBill]

Maybe - Might be a bit utilitarian for what i had in mind, Could make a fancy one though, i'll add it to the list

belt buckles?

How about some sort of decorative pendants of your own design? Couple that with a leather cord necklace and you might have a nice little seller.

Not quite the things i was thinking of Southey, Quite like the idea of a bronze slammer glass though

Thats the kind of thing i was thinking, got 50m of black 2mm leather thong here waiting for stuff to hang off it. Rachael (squishy on here) is the jewellery maker though, she's already made a few pendants this week.

Was thinking of making some bronze axe and knife pendants.

Knife scales?

Sounds good mate.

Have to think about that one, perhaps on a decorative blade maybe. I reckon they will be a bit too heavy on a bushy. Good possibilities though

You could lose a lot of metal on the insides and fill the voids with somethig lighter.

I know what you mean. Would you have any interest in bronze arrow heads?
