Copper Planters

Copper planters with hand bucked 1/4″ round-head copper rivets. The bottoms and rolled lips were both hammer-formed. The form for the bottom was plywood. It took a few rounds of hammering and annealing to achieve the final shape. In the end I resorted to hand tucking the copper and hammering down the tucks onto a dolly. The rolled lips were formed over rolled steel tubing. Lots of drilling and deburring on this project.
