Thanks a lot to both Battara and Frederico.
I know I have still a long way to go outside of the training itself.
I have now produced my repoussé tools and have been to Istanbul to find the right pitch on which to set the copper, respectively silver sheet. I still have to produce my hammer before starting the repousse and chasing work.
I hope I can find the "The Treasury of the World" as I will certainly need model to design and make the bottom part of the sheath.
As you can think, Battara, most of the pleasure is in learning a new craft, with some good advices as you give, I therefor will not send it to your attention !!
Thanks

Michel
