trying out fold forming















I cut a marquise shape out of .4mm fine silver plate, then folded it in half. Left hand side, forged along the fold and right hand side forged along outside edge. metal moves opposite directions, changing the shape. once opened the one on the left forged along the fold becomes concave shape whilst the other convex type shape. i think this would be an effective technique to use to create pods.
