Got Copper? Bisbee goes authentic!
« on: July 18, 2014, 02:56:28 PM »

It started with a raw sheet of copper from Kettle Karma and a little imagination:



Cut and formed:



Installed:







My first priority was the top shelf which used a majority of the copper sheet.  I did not have enough for the SS piece around the bowl, so I went black to keep with the theme.  I used just about every square inch of the sheet.

I have not polished it up yet as I wanted to see it with the "pantina" look.  May give it a good polish this weekend to see how it looks.

Thanks again Kettle Karma for the opportunity to take Bisbee to the next level.
