Art and Metal Jewlery 12

As being apart of Mr.Petersons art and metal jewelry class we have started on our rose. In grade 9 I already made a rose but I forgot a lot of the steps. Our first step was cutting out the rose outlines on the sheet metal. I found this layout worked well for me. I did have troubles shaping the roses petals and some of the petals turned out uneven. Next time I would have been more careful when cutting around the outline. The next step in this project was operating the oxy acetylene torch, I was nervous about the flame at first but once I was guided and worked through it I felt more confident. Once I got comfortable enough I used the jewelry torch and brought some cool colours out of my project. I still needed help setting up but each time I will try and improve. I am also nervous about electrical welding. Overall I am pleased how my project looks. Here is a picture of the jewelry torch and my project.
