Step 2
The metal gradually forms a curve
Step 3
The curved metal forms a cylinder
Step 4

Step 7
The circle is hammered into dome
Step 8
The dome is fitted onto the cylinder and then both the parts joined together
Step 9
A strip of metal is shaped to make the handle to give the support to cylinder. Ring shape hand is to be created
