Copper Bracelet: Learnary Tinker Kit
A Learnary Trade Skills Kit for Tinkering with Metalwork
Recommended for ages 10+
Copper is a beautiful material that has been used by humans for at least 8000 years! As a soft metal, it’s great for making projects without heavy tools or machinery. While it starts out shiny and reddy-gold, it turns a beautiful green colour when it is exposed to air over time. Copper is super conductive and one of the ways it’s used most is to move electricity. It is also anti-microbial (which means it can kill bacteria and viruses on contact) . Because of this, it is now being used on bus handles to kill the Covid virus and even in socks to make them less stinky!
This bracelet project was adapted from Skills Ready - an initiative of the Construction Foundation of BC (credit: Sheila Sadler). This kit contains all the supplies you will need to get started.
