Cause if you heat the brass until it glows orange, then pickle it and clean it with a brass brush, you can bend and shape it so much easier.<br /><br />(There. That's annealing in 30 words or less.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963424365699253864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637603317585526953.post-91447932213007480062010-09-13T21:01:29.693-05:002010-09-13T21:01:29.693-05:00Your cord is pure fabulousness.

I hope you don't mind me taking the liberty of incorporating the technique into my <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/riv/4985830452/" rel="nofollow">necklace</a> for an upcoming show I'm doing :)rivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15064291940609433515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637603317585526953.post-56272269765660266332010-09-12T10:22:55.267-05:002010-09-12T10:22:55.267-05:00well, the one time i tried annealing copper it pra...well, the one time i tried annealing copper it practically turned into paper, so no, it hadn't occurred to me.
