Base making 4
The brooches I made come in three sizes, large, medium and small, and I mapped out the base hole punching dimensions and punched the holes according to the size of the brooch.
I oiled the wood with wood wax oil, in order to give it more shine and a darker colour. I used a wire saw to saw the copper tubing to the appropriate lengths and inserted it into the holes in the wooden base according to the dimensioned drawings I had made, and with a little adjustment, the base was complete.
