Uri Tuchman plus a whale needs a friend! It would be pretty awesome to see you have an entire set of hammers/tools in a form of life and art! Another fish that you could go crazy with is the pufferfish and all of the tiny “bumps” or barbs when it puffs up. That’d look amazing with those bumps gold plated and the same patina as the whale.
Use acetone to clean your piece before etching/using blackening agents. It removes oils/gunk and allows for a uniform reaction across the applied surface.
3:43 I literally belly laughed, which, is perfect. Uri, your talent impresses and awes me , your humor is amazing and your honesty is rare. You are a gem my friend. The world needs more people like you. Thank you for sharing your talent and personality with us.
Love the gold highlight for the eye! A few tips from New Zealand on getting an even, solid black finish on copper (and bronze) : The best results I've had have been using a cold patina based on copper sulphate and ammonium chloride. While it may not be as durable as other hot patinas it's perfect for parts like this where the finish is primarily decorative. As you did, I'll get the piece to a bright polish to ensure it's perfectly smooth, but then prior to patinating I'll give it a light rub with scotchbrite so that it has a uniform brushed appearance. This doesn't show up in the final finish but without it I've found the oxide layer can shed from the underlying surface, leaving bright patches. I'll do this step wearing clean gloves and follow it up with a thorough cleaning before I apply the patina. Where I am looking for an even finish, I prefer if at all possible to submerge the whole part in a bath of the patina. With the patinas I use, I typically dilute the solution with distilled water, as that slows the rate at which the reaction occurs and gives you more control over when to arrest it. While it is in the bath, it's best to keep the solution moving by stirring it gently (or tilting the container if it's small enough) so that the chemicals stay evenly distributed as they react with the copper. As you will have found, when the surface dries it lightens to more of a grey, but the rich black comes back when you apply a surface sealant - for anything that won't be seeing heavy wear I like to use a similar beeswax/linseed mix to what you used on the handle!

I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoy every single video you release. From beginning to end they are amazing. Thank you for sharing your work and your craftsmanship, as well as your sense of humor, with us.
Hello Uri. I worked as a patineur for many years and used "Antique Black M20 Immersion" as a base for many patinas. You can get a light honey color to a pitch black. I think it is used as a gun blueing as well. Love your work and style.
I know this is already quite an old video, but liver of sulphur works best when it's hot. From my experience with jewellerymaking, I've always just purchased dry liver of sulphur from suppliers, and put one or two small chunks (maybe 2-3g) in a bowl of freshly boiled water. Pre-heating your metal by simply placing it in a separate bowl of hot water helps the patina take much better. I would also recommend doing it more than once, as the patina will wear away, but if you patina one layer, and burnish it (either by hand, or using a rotary tumbler), and add more layers on top, it tends to give the darkness a depth. Patina also works well with sterling silver :) Cheers! Love watching your work!
With each video you're not only making better and better art pieces, and useful ones at that, but also your video editing skills have been improving greatly over the past couple videos! Great job Uri love your vids.
Very rewarding. And great editing as usual. I find myself repeating past comments. But I can't help the fact that your videos are thing of joy for me to watch. I link you wherever I go and no doubt friends and family are sick of me talking about your latest creations. But I know a lot of them now follow you. So once again. ..thank you mate. I really enjoyed this job.
Lovely piece of work as always, one minor warning would be that copper work hardens over time and the sharp edges on the face of the hammer may crack or shatter eventually. I don't think it's as dangerous as when iron/hardened steel hammers break chips off but probably worth annealing it every now and then to reduce the chances of getting a metal splinter in the eye
That's so adorable!!! You can blacken copper simply with a torch. No liver of sulfur is needed, really. Just keep hitting it with the flame until you get the desired color. :) Also, I've found that the gel version of Liver of Sulfur, painted on as a gel instead of diluting with water, works wonderfully as long as the piece is thoroughly cleaned first. I use a soft brass brush and soapy water to clean it before darkening.
« How to make a Whale Shaped chasing hammer from copper » ... I’m pretty sure no one had ever asked him or herself this question before you. But thank you for answering it for the whole youtube-watching humanity. We are in need of answers.
I do stained glass and use commercial patina compounds, they provide a faster blacking but it is always only a thin surface layer. You might want to seal the patina with a thin coat of a non gloss lacquer if you want to preserve the blacking. However, I like how your hammer has copper spots it gives character.
That turned out to be an awesome hammer, Uri! I was not aware that coloring metal was that "easy" (relatively speaking, and based on how you made it look). (Also, it was great meeting you at Makers Central!) Thanks for sharing!
I was going to suggest cupric nitrate for a blue green color. It is a base to form copper hydrates. On colpper should finish very nicely. More intense if applyed to warm or hot surface. Also, gold never oxidizes. 5000 year old gold in egyptian tombs still shines. Loved the video. you do some very nice projects. I'm looking forward to the next as always. Regards, Solomon
Uri, you are an amazing craftsman. I love your work and Atistic ability. All your videos are fun to watch, and extremely informative. Kindest Regards to you!
depending on how hard the oxide layer is to remove, you could submerge the whole thing in the oxide making solution a couple of times instead of brushing it on to the surface. This also might act as a way to help mask off areas when doing the gold plating. Great work on the hammer and the editing, keep it up man!
I’ve seen that birch wood Casey’s brass black for copper and brass works really well for blackening, then if you want to lighten it, you can use some fine steel wool or sandpaper. It looks pretty cool with that copper showing through though!
A nice flat black patina can be got on brass apparently by cold immersion in Birchwood Technologies Antique Black® M24. Black patina depth can be enhanced by providing untreated areas og contrast. Since brass is largely copper it should work on copper. Patinas that form copper oxide rather than sulphide are blackest. Even in many of the old books on workshop receipts there doesn’t seem to be much call for blackening of copper. Brass yes and even then recommendations for blackening brass instruments are to mix lampblack with the minimum of gold size and grind this with turpentine and paint it on.

I used to work at a bronze foundry where we added black patina to plaques and sculptures using Kodak photo fixer powder. The bronze was heated with a torch and the mixed up solution applied with a chip brush. Then the whole thing got a coat of paste wax.

A suggestion for the future, see if you can get a can of "Durham's Water Putty", this stuff works great and maybe you can make something out of it. This stuff dries rock hard, does not shrink, can be carved etc. and of course etc.
In my experience if you put a small amount of the liver of sulfur (5ml or so) in 1/2 to 1 cup of boiling water then put your polished piece in (not warmed) the result after 5 minutes should be very black.
Uri, for your next project, how about a trammel compass? They used to make them out of wood and brass. There are a couple of complications in making one that might interest you

Love your videos and your sense of humour! Such a shame I live across the pond from you (Canada)! One word of advice though....run a comb through that hair once in a while! :)
With a shark instead of a whale you would have a *sharkhead hammer*, opposed to the hammerhead shark. ;)
But your whalehead hammer is still awesome!
Well played. Well played, indeed.
This would be perfect for a raising or planishing hammer
Fish are friends not tools.
Even though sharks aren't technically fish

This comment reminded me of the riddle about the chicken and eggs!

Use acetone to clean your piece before etching/using blackening agents. It removes oils/gunk and allows for a uniform reaction across the applied surface.

There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea
The winds blew up, her bow dipped down
Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
She'd not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down low (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon my the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave a go
Boats!
For forty days or ever more
The line went slack and tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still that whale did go (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum

Even in many of the old books on workshop receipts there doesn’t seem to be much call for blackening of copper.

I recommend that you scout around for some old books like the “Technochemical Receipt Book by W T Brannt and WH Wahl who translated it (and many othe German language originals) from the works of winkler, Elsner,Heinze,Miersinski, Jacobsen, Koller and Heinzerling. Another good source is “Workshop Receipts for manufacturers, mechanics and scientific amateurs” and the later five volumes of this by Spon. There are many books of this sort which are a mine of information of now forgotten (or replaced by much safer) techniques and tips which if you steer clear of anything mentioning Mercury, Arsenic, Cadmium or cyanide can provide solutions to a lot of problems in practical technology. They are an amazing insight into how things used to be done.
Thinking about it you could try dipping the degreased copper into ( or painting it on to the copper)a dilute mixture of sulphuric and nitric acid and then transferring it to a bath of hydrogen peroxide or just heating it quickly in a furnace. The idea is to form a layer of adherent oxide. The deader black will be obtained if the metal surface is matted by fine media blasting.
Again you might try the above acid bath followed by immersion into sodium bicarbonate then rinsing in distilled water to form a layer of copper carbonate which can then be transformed to the oxide by heating evenly to drive off CO2.
Another thought is try painting a sugar solution or even concentrated shellac on to the matted copper allow to dry and stick that into a furnace. It should form a layer of carbon but how adherent I don’t know. If it looks black enough then stabilise it with matt varnish but it is only a sort of way of painting without mixing the paint.
I’d be interested to see how you get on- theory is one thing practice another.
