Well, as you can see the copper clay may not be as torch fireable as suggested. If these have been posted as i listed them then the first should be of the bar. I noticed that the dodgey tab was also slightly off skew. So a gently grasped the piece with pliers and applied a little pressure to bend it back. It snapped in half. I noticed how the core was crumbly,so i tested with my pliers and it basically crumbled without any effort at all. The next picture is of the recently completed zodiac pendant, which i have worn since i finished it. The bail on one side hadnt quite bonded,so i was going to solder it. I had it in my hot lil paws but dropped it not 4-5inches onto my desk and it broke. Yet again the core seems crumbly. The last picture is the pendant after i saw cut the odd off. Still a usable piece, just not happy it seems that the copper hasnt sintered.
