Joey,

Nice description of the process.  I'll ask my brother to scope the inside of his bottle, or try to feel it with a probe.  You're fortunate to have had first hand experience with these two techniques.  I've done some very crude forms of repousse using salvaged copper gutters and tools like ball peen hammers for a barfront I built, but never anything requiring fine workmanship.  At least now I know what it's called.

Cheers,

Rube.
