Really nice job. I did something similar with some reclaimed galvanized, but had my corners and safety edge folded to the inside. Then made a lid for it too. Keep up the great work!
Awesome, looking forward to seeing if you can perform a bread baking performance comparison to folded seam steel pans and a folded seam copper pan. This is super interesting!! I always lined my pans with a folded parchment liner during production baking to ease removal and quick batch turnaround. I also used steam injection (depending on oven) or a water tin within the oven for crust development, this may preserve the tin lined copper in some way indirectly through humidity in the baking process. Possibly pre-tin the copper interior prior to folding. Fantastic video, thanks for making this.
I definitely am going to play with this - I have aluminum baking pans and now this sample copper one, so I'll have to do that shortly and see what happens - I'm sure there will be some adjusting needed for baking times, etc. And yes, 100% you're right - if these were tin-lined, you'd want to tin in the flat before folding them. Thanks for the ideas and for watching!!
trying to find some place to go to figure out how to wrap copper around wood with a lot of corners . I've been trying to improve on my projects look. I've been trying to get copper sheeting to form over a wooden cross and be seamless and no cut corners. I can not figure out to do it . I always end up having to cut and solder my corners. can you make a video on that particular project
I will do so when I have a project that uses wood and corners. But it may just come down to you having to play with the cut of your metal - it might be a weirder shape than you think. I did brass corners on a copper piece once, and they weren't perfectly 90-degree angles, but close and I had to make odd little ovals.
This seems like a good project to have a paper pattern with all the lines marked out. Glue it to the tin/copper sheet and then fast follow the lines on a creasing stake.
I've searched a lot for how to do this type of corner. What's the hand tool that you use at 6:38 to help fold the corner? What thicknesses of sheet do you work with?

Thank you so much for watching - super happy to hear you liked the video! Was your lid flat, did it have an interior band, or...?
@@housecopper I honestly can’t remember. 😳 I’m going to have to go dig it out and look. 😁

looks awesome! I am going to try
You can do it! Yay!
Very interesting. I've been looking for a project I could make during demonstrations without having to solder
YAY! And they looked great!!

Yeah! Just like the tray designs at the convergence.

Glad the video helps! :) The hand tool at 6:38 is called a sheet metal crimper. This video has 20oz copper, but I usually work in thinner gauges.
Thank you!
What’s the gage of the metal?
This one is 16oz copper / 24gauge

Oh, so it's origami, but with copper. That's all you had to say.
Ha! I didn't even think the word origami when I was doing this, but yes, that's a great comparison! :)
Try again, that is an insult to origami and the sheet metal artist both.
