Topping a table with zinc sheet metal
So here's the whole set finished up....I did a post on painting with the ASCP in "Emperor's Silk" a couple of days ago...this post is a long one but if you're curious as to how we topped the table with zinc this will show you the process....

Aging Zinc
I just realized that I didn't ever post on how we aged our zinc table top (see the topping a table with zinc post here) In this photo the new zinc is on the right. It looks similar to stainless steel. The piece on the left is after several coats of cupric sulfate solution. The cool thing about the zinc is that this isn't permanent.
