swimming in copper, and I have no use for it. Halp

[Lezard]

Bolts,Bins,Shields....if none of this appeals then pave the outside world with it.

[Kay12]

Trap weapons are a good idea. Or then you could build a noble house of it. Or course, alloying may also be a good idea, if you've got anything to mix that copper with.

[Satarus]

Bins and barrels.  You can never have too many bins or barrels.

[EveryZig]

Bolts, bolts, and more bolts. Its great for training weapon smiths while you are at it.

[Jake]

It's good for making ammunition or blunt weapons because of its weight, and with a bit of workshop profile juggling it can be used to train up weaponsmiths and armourers without wasting more useful metal. It's also good for bins and barrels if you're short of wood, and a few bins of trade goods made and/or studded with it will go a long way towards keeping your fortress in food and booze.

Create the copper mauntainhalls, add in some brass for different coloration and dedicate the fortress to worship of bronze collosi wich you should try and trap peacefully subdue and bring to his divine quarters.

the words bronze colossus are forbidden in my fortress. I have a caged bronze colossus who litterally will not die, no matter how many axe/hammer/sword masters I throw at him, no matter how many golbins I pit him with, he'll just headbutt people now that h'es limbless. But you just can't kill the bastard.

Build a gigantic copper alot. Alot of copper.

I fail to see a problem.....

Statues, Tables, Doors, Coffins, ETC. Make your fortress nice.
Weapon Traps/Bolts/Shields for your soldiers
Import Cassiterite/Tin Bars and make Bronze, a decent weapon material.

It's not that nice - copper only has a material value of 2, the same as flux stone (limestone/chalk/marble/calcite) and green glass.

Weight has no corrolation to ammo effectiveness.

[Loyal]

Set it as a non-economic stone and use it for Stonefall traps? It's nearly 33% heavier than Cobaltite. Though this depends on what ore you have.

[Excedion]

I use my copper for training armor and weapon smiths as well as for bins, barrels and mechanisms
