Steel Tea Cup with Steel Tea Bag

The tea cup was formed using the Masonite die forming process
and was brazed together.

The copper saucer was formed using a hydraulic a press and a peice of hard wood.

The tea bag was made by folding and brazing steel.
The tea bag label is etched stainless steel.

Strart all over again

A few days ago I created a few pieces using the hydraulic die forming press I put together about six months ago. I’m afraid it might be the last time I’ll be able to use it though. When I bought the h frame shop press the top support was bent. I thought I would be able to put up with it, but the bend got worse
Each time I use it.
I guess I’ll just have to put together one of these :
