I would want to create medals is it possible to do this on a small scale
Yes, it is possible to do coining on a small scale. Coining is the process of creating coins or medals using a press and a die. This can be done on a small scale using a smaller press and customized dies.
The equipment needed for coining on a small scale includes a press, a die, and materials to create the coins such as metals or plastics. A smaller press, such as a benchtop press, can be used for smaller scale production. Customized dies can also be made for specific designs.
A variety of materials can be used for coining on a small scale, including metals like copper, bronze, and silver, as well as non-metal materials like plastics. The material chosen will depend on the desired look and durability of the coins.
Coining on a small scale can be very precise. With the use of high quality materials and precise equipment, coins can be produced with intricate designs and sharp edges. However, the precision may not be as exact as large-scale coining due to the limitations of smaller equipment.
Yes, there are safety concerns to consider when doing coining on a small scale. The press and dies can be dangerous if not used properly, so it is important to follow all safety precautions and have proper training. It is also important to handle the materials carefully, as they may be sharp or toxic.
