We’ve just finished this piece which was commissioned by a local scouts club as a presentation. For anyone who has been in the scouts you’ll recognise it’s a silver model of a woggle that you use to tie your scarf. It looks simply enough to plait some silver wire but the challenge was to get the silver to behave like the leather that is used in the original.
It took alot of annealing to get the silver wire malleable enough to plait, so what looks like three easy steps in these photos actually was spread out over a few days work!
