WEEK 2: The Torus

The torus was made by splitting the aluminium into three equal sections, and then bending them while also creating a curved shape. This provided difficult as the more you hammered to create the central channel, the more the metal wanted to straighten out. Patience was key as I had to keep hammering out the channel, and then shaping it to achieve the curve. Finally, the edges were rolled over, and the piece polished.
