I dug through your post history to see if I could unearth clues regarding your process. No dice, but I recognize the vast majority of your posts and have commented on a few of them over the past 6 months or so. I didn’t realize they all came from the same person, impressive!
I still have my original question (how did you go about forging this), but now I have another one: what do you do for a living? It’s obvious that you enjoy working across a variety of media and your level of competence suggests that you’ve been doing this type of thing for a while. I am a… very low output hobbiest maker. It’s nice to see what others are able to accomplish with more time input, but it’s never been clear to me just how large (or not) that time input was.

Hammers, a vice and a MAP gas torch for when the copper becomes work hardened. As for what I do I’m a shoe repairman for a living but I just make stuff in my spare time.

It ain’t easy being green… unless you wear copper jewelry

I would 100% buy this in silver, I love interesting minimalist designs like this one

Nice! The alternating notches are a nice touch.

+1 on dexterity checks because I suck at fitting jewelry lol
