This was a fun cuff to create - the challenge was to get the fold to form at one corner of the cuff, and extend to the opposite side of the cuff:
If you look closely, you can see that there are 2 different textures hammered into the cuff - one on either side of the fold.
With the help of my Sharpie, my paper template, and my vise, I got it right the first time - yay!
The folds are flattened down at the ends of the cuff, so the cuff is more comfortable when worn.
I achieved the beautiful patina through a combination of Liver of Sulfur, buffing with steel wool, and a very long time in the tumbler (about 4 hours).
