Bell

I made a bell. Me and my teacher skipped the part about the particular sound. As that turned out to be a single branch of musical theory and practice, campanology will have to wait. This was before I started to snap pictures as well.

So we can imagine we are traveling back in time when we look at this, traveling in time while we're focusing on me NOT taking pictures of everything. I did however, as I usually do when I decide to publish something here snap a picture of the final work. I tend to wrap myself up in my own sentences. It can get quite messy.

I started with a copper plate and made a rough model, to get familiar with the hammer and the idea of shaping silver with it. After soldering it into a cone I started to hammer. I think that bells are usually molded, but I'll save that for some other time.
It was really funny, you get to unleash a little emotion, other than patience that is.

 It surprised me at first. I do not know wich tone it emitted when I rang it. But it was clean and rather loud for such a small thing. I was later informed that noble metals have a tendency to working rather well in instruments. As soon as I find the cord to my scanner I will upload some sketches.
