Been back to pounding out some heavy sterling bracelets again. The thicker the metal the harder they are to shape. Heavy pounding with a 16oz steel hammer to shape the ends and then pound to wrist shape with a rawhide mallet. Lots of filing to remove hammer marks from the ends and round them off, and lots of sanding/polishing to get a fine finish.
