NCTS - Bossing Leadwork Training Course

Course outline: Lead sheet is a relatively soft and a very dense metal in comparison to other roofing metals such as Copper or Zinc. Bossing is the method in which Lead is shaped and formed in order to suit various details. In its basic form it is a relatively simple skill to learn. On this course students practice and develop their skill, to allow for the most complex shapes to be created out of a flat sheet without leaving a tool mark on the surface of the metal, or any significant reduction to its original thickness.
