Framing Corrugated Metal

Jewelry Discussion
#1

Hi, Alma

I have taught classes in just this topic as I really enjoy the
corrugated metal, but find the edges sometimes too thin and sharp to
be practical. At the same time, I really love the ragged texture of
the edge and want to display it in a way that it isn’t a problem. I
am attaching a couple of photos of how I solved the problem in
pieces I have made. I hope you find this helpful!

Deb, I love the way you have solved the ragged edge problem of
corrugated metal. Wonderful work. I don’t have a problem with
silver, as I hit the edges with my torch, melting them so that they
fuse into a smooth edge, As I like to combine copper and silver, it
is the copper ones that cause a problem.

Thanks for sharing your ideas. Alma
