ALUMINIUM BOWL

PREPARATION

It started by cutting a large aluminium piece, to a round shape, by using a pair of pruners. This process actually took me a long while. After that, I used compass and marker to mark the circle on it.

After I have done all of those preparing works, the next step is just smashing it!

SMASHING

Firstly, I used the pointy side of hammer to give it a depth, just smash it along the marks I have drawn, I started in the middle first then the sides. Secondly, I used another smoother side to make it finer. But the metal hammer does the better job on that. Thirdly, the tool called English wheel has really helped me with this bowl, it gave my bowl a very smooth and polished finish.

POLISHING

This is the finally process of my aluminium bowl, I used Brasso Metal Polish to do it.

Firstly, you will need to put the liquid on a cloth and wipe it all around the bowl, and after, use another clean piece of cloth to wipe it out, then Voila!

the metal polish smells really bad though.

TESTING

This is my bowl comparing with a circle that drew on computer, we can see they are pretty much the same.

USING

you can put pasta in it ;)
