I milled out some 6 mm wide 16 gage wire for the sides. and did the spirals from 14 gage wire hammered Flat after forming shape. I used the spirals to give it an earth feel, and I made a punch with the create center drilled out to create the reptilian skin Effect. I milled out some sheet at 20 Sterling silver gage And still my hammer marks show easily on the back. Should use a lighter hammer, or a Smaller Arm.
