In this final part I want to consider making more three dimensional and free-standing pieces and to mention some of the ways other enamellers have used copper shim or foil.

Relatively flat pieces are easier to enamel than ones "in the round", but anything is possible with care and the use of glue and bent wire stilts for supporting (or hanging up) some of the bits in the kiln. A tableau picture could be a good intermediate exercise.
