Looking for advice for cutting details in thin brass sheet
I do some embossed illustrations on brass sheet (usually around 0.1mm thick). I’m able to cut out simple shapes with some decent scissors with a pretty clean result, but cutting intricate negative space shapes has proven to be a struggle. x-acto and utility blades won’t quite pop through the sheet without using enough force to be a little concerning.
I was just wondering if anyone here had any suggestions on methods or hand tools I could try out.
thanks for any help!
