Comment on Nautilus Nautilidae by JPCopper
This is very cool! You did a great job forming the wires 
it turned out like i imagined which is unusual
but if i could do things with metal plating like you i expect its shell would look much better

Hmm Maybe, but you did a pretty good job with the materials you had available
how do you cut it? the metal?
Well I learned how to do all this in a metals class my college offered this semester. You use a small saw blade to cut the metal. If you go onto riogrande.com you'll find a lot of good tools and material to use
ohh.. thats a nice site to play around on is that. i wish i were at a more appropriate age for christmas lists
you should go check the colleges around you and see if any of them offer a metalsmithing class! It was alot of fun when I took it, and wasn't extremely difficult However, i will warn you that soldering is a Pain in the ASS!!!!
