It´s time to recycle some silver scrap!

and this time I tried to make real sheet silver out of my scrap (which almost overstrained my plate roll ).

melting in the charcoal , hammering, intermediate annealing, rolling out repeatedly, and in the end - sheet silver !

The real snowflakes won´t be long in coming... in the meanwhile here are some snowflakes that won´t melt.
