Beautiful work. Thank you for posting this sequence of pictures. It is always to see a work progress.

What type of pitch are you using in the top picture, or is it a different type of material?

It is a standard pitch, for fixing the work.

Charles, I’m not sure but to me it seems you mostly cut in copper, if so is that because it is a soft metal?

Yes,

I Like the copper sheet, it is a good material to shaping the structure i want. it is softer than the brass sheet, and brass sheet softer than the steel sheet.
