Bronze Mesh Screen: Fine Bronze Wire Woven on a Wire Loom

The mould for wove paper is a wooden frame covered with finely woven metal wire cloth; the period moulds used brass (Wikipedia, Wove paper). This screen is woven from fine bronze wire on a wire loom, as in our woven wire cloth blueprint, to about 40 openings per inch. Mesh count and finishing are ours. The picture: our drawing.

Ama-blueprint ahlobene

Lama-blueprint abelana ngolwazi — amasu, izinto noma izimiso

CC0 Isizinda Somphakathi

Le blueprint ikhishwe ngaphansi kwe-CC0. Ukhululekile ukukopisha, ukuguqula, ukusabalalisa, nokusebenzisa ngaphandle kwemvume.

Sekela uMenzi ngokuthenga imikhiqizo nge-Blueprint yabo IKhomishane Yomenzi kumiswe ngabathengisi, noma dala inguqulo entsha yale Blueprint bese uyifaka njengoxhumaniso ku-Blueprint yakho ukuze wabelane ngemali engenayo.
