Aluminum socket wrenches are a necessity when using hex nuts. Pliers will surely slip and scratch your work.  Hex head bolts with hex nuts require two, one for the head and one for the nut.  Specify 00-90.

Miniature Hand Taps & Dies

Now, thread and tap your own parts.  Three flute plug taps thread the inside of a hole; dies cut threads on wire to make screws.  Check the chart at the bottom of the page for proper size. For best results use the EZ Tap & Die Holder below and Anchor Lube.  Carbon steel.  For hand use only!

Drill Bits

Drills cut exactly right to match our taps.  High speed steel is recommended for titanium, niobium and general drilling. Cobalt, a harder steel, is recommended for hard materials like stainless steel, brass and for long life.  Clearance drills produce a hole that a bolt passes through without touching.  Tap drills leave the material needed to cut threads in a hole.  See the chart below for the proper sizes.  Purchase any ten and save 10%!

Creative Metal Forming by Betty Helen Longhi and Cynthia Eid

Two accomplished metalsmiths, both with extensive teaching careers, have joined forces to provide a comprehensive survey of the ways to form sheet metal.  The 256 page text covers a huge swath, from a basic dapped disk through synclasting, anticlasting and spiculums, to a raised vessel.  Along the way, special attention is given to anticlastic forming and the vocabulary first introduced by their mentor, Heikki Seppa.  Creative Metals Forming includes 35 detailed exercises to explain the basics as well as advanced nuances of each category.  Metalsmiths Michael Good and Nancy Linkin have each contributed demonstrations of their forming techniques also.  Full color, hard cover w/jacket. 256 pages, 700+ photos, 70 illustrations.

Coloring Base Metals, A Practical Guide by Christine Cox

From the foreword by Tim McCreight:

"This compact volume contains edge to edge information, clearly presented in terms that we all understand. Here's a boast not every book can make: you can read this and start working on a gorgeous patina in the time it would take to cook a pizza. That's because Christine demonstrates how to use familiar household chemicals like ammonia and salt to color metal.

In addition to its practicality, Coloring Base Metals deserves special credit for its vitality. You won't see these words written, but at the top of each page it could say, "Hey, wanna see something really cool?" The author's infectious enthusiasm permeates every page and I am certain it will infect you too."
