    My father in law use to make copper countertops venthoods and sinks back in the day. He made his own book of samples using everything from vinegar to lemon juice and various exposure times. He made a one counter top where he soaked leaves in water and threw them onto the copper sheet, laying them out flat and left it outside for a couple weeks, keeping the leaves wet. When he removed them they left perfect "patina" copies of themselves on the copper. Very delicate but noticable.

      Hello there! :D There's definitely some benefit to using the false rusting. For one, you can control it and not worry about it going too far. Also, the integrity of the object is in-tact. I did this for some metal roofing one time, and felt good about it not having any thin rusted out parts like might happen with real rusted roofing. :)

      Probably mid to late spring, depending on the latitude and longitude.
      Bring whatever you like to eat and share!

    CrafsMan i just wanted to say how much i love the evolution and progress of your channel, i've been following it since quite a while and everytime a new video comes up it puts a big smile on my face! Have you considered getting into some voice stuff like VoiceOverPete? Cause you got an amazing and very relaxing voice, just saying :)

      Franco, I appreciate your encouragement. I've actually never heard of VoiceOverPete until right now. I'll probably stick to just doing my little MP3s for folks on Etsy, but if things slow down, I'll keep that in mind. :D

    Randy (Randall Johnson) sent me the link (I'm his dad, and proud of it!), and this is awesome! Now you've got me inspired! I play bass in a metal band, and I've been wondering what to do with my plain white pickguard on my seafoam green Fender bass. Now I've got it! Going to buy a copper pickguard and put a patina on that thang!! Gonna have to study your video!!! Thanks you sir!

I hope your bass guitar pickguard project goes well! (Would be happy to check out the finished project, if you're inclined! thecrafsman@gmail.com)
