Thanks. You could give one of those a try in your metals class. I used a step shear to cut the strips, and a cheap bending break to crease them. The sides are just copper sheet with the designs cut with a jeweler's saw. The top is a copper fence post cap from the lumber yard, and the rivets are copper boat nails. The only tricky metalwork in the project was forging the curve on the struts. Someday I want to teach those as a weekend workshop.

Thanks; I also made a simple grill work version that is much more akin to the origional A&C stuff.

Cheers.
