I have seem copper vessels being heated and hammered on very lightly with small wooden hammers.. a very delicately and precisely done.
On brass they seem to used heavier hammers
I think they use a heavy hammer too for silver.
It must be fun to watch. I do, on YouTube, hehehe!
Got to check out YouTube. Thanks for that reminder.
