I want to form a ranger buckle. I am practicing with copper and have made a hard wood form to shape it on using a rawhide mallet. It works pretty well when forming the front part of the buckle but when I try to form the back of the "U" shaped buckle the outside comes up when I form the inside. When I form the outside the inside comes up. I don't spend a lot of money on a press as this is a one off.
