In today's video I'll be showing you how to make a simple copper bowl (a ring dish, in this case) from a readily available piece of copper pipe. This is the same basic process that you would use for making a coffee scoop, if you're wanting to make one of those.
I'll be showing you the process and giving you some ideas for tools you can use if you don't have the tools I do. I tried my best to make it informative and enjoyable, so I hope that it'll be both of those for you.

I got my swage block from Holland Anvil. I really recommend them for both anvils and swages. They're a big supporter of the blacksmithing community.
