I need a detailed description. You can copy/paste or anything, but it must answer my question. Also, can you carve copper for jewellery?
The first thing that comes to my mind is electrical wiring, since I'm an electrician. Copper is the best conductor of electricity that is priced affordably.
Copper is used to pipe water supplies. The metal is also used in refrigerators and air conditioning systems. Computer heat sinks are made out of copper as copper is able to absorb a high amount of heat. Magnetrons, found in microwave ovens, contain copper. Vacuum tubes and cathode ray tubes both use copper. Some copper is added to fungicides and nutritional supplements. As a good conductor of electricity, copper is used in Copper wire, electromagnets and electrical relays and switches. Copper is a great water-proof roofing material. It has been used for this purpose since ancient times. Some structures, such as the Statue of Liberty, are made with copper. Copper is sometimes combined with nickel to make a corrosion resistant material that is used in shipbuilding. Copper is used in lightning rods. These attract lightning and cause the electrical current to be dispersed rather than striking, and possibly destroying, a more important structure. Copper(II) sulfate is used to kill mildew. Copper is often used to color glass. It is also one component of ceramic glaze. Many musical instruments, particularly brass instruments, are made out of copper.
You don't really 'carve' copper so much as poor it, then trim/neaten it up later. Copper is used for: coins wire pots/pans jewelry art as a part of other metals (bronze) etc
