As far as materials go all you need is 2 small pieces of 22 gauge sheet metal 1 copper and 1 steel and a steel rod measuring 1 4 in diameter and 1 foot in length. The materials needed for this project are scrap or non scrap metal a metal rod tools that will be used to make this project are angle grinder with cutting and grinding wheels pliers needle nose preferably bench vice arc welder with welding rods propane torch with.

The petal is the main and most notable part of the rose. Instead of forging the sepals en forging the petals they are made of sheet metal. The name rose metal products is just a coincidence as far as i know. It was totally outside of my comfort zone but once i dug in and realized how similar working with metal sheets was to the papercrafting i used to love to do when my children were younger.

It involves cutting and shaping a bunch of metal circles to make the petals and adding a 5 point metal star underneath it to make the sepal which. Part one of a little series of doing a variation of making a rose. They are made using a simple ice cream cone shape. I think it would be fun to make these from soda cans too.
