Good article on raising hollow copper and silver vessels.
Most of the info applies to raising steel as well.

Very nice find Tom!

It explains some tool set up (raising profile) and practices (like air gap) better than I have been doing. I need to share this with my students.

Thank for sharing. 8)

I also like his photos and measurements before and after a round of raising.
I have always wanted to get a stake like he uses.
