In this video, Professor John Ahr of the Online Jewelry Academy demonstrates how to form domes by dapping discs cut from sheet metal.
The secrets to success with this process is to work with well annealed sheet metal and be patient as you work your way through all the required steps. If you simply bang your way through the process the resulting dome forms will reflect your poor craftsmanship.
