Anyone do anything with copper?

I am interested in buying some sheets of copper and making some fountaincreations. I would have to cut and shape copper, and join some seams.Would the best way be to solder them? Is there a special process? Do I useflux? Lead solder? Lead/tin solder? Rosin core? Give me some hints.Also, I want to create some copper tooled insets for door panels anddecorative work. It is stunning, and weathers great. How would I jointhose seams without getting too big a HAZ that is visible forever, and thatdoesn't patinate?Suggestions and sites appreciated greatly.Steve
