Title: Lady friend project's.
Post by: cowboy on January 23, 2010, 09:18:49 pm

I kinda spouted off about making some special stuff and wound up inheriting some different type obligation's, I guess you could say ::). Wasn't going to show any of this till I had several made but decided to show you all what I had going on. This and others will be necklaces - imagine I'll be making hearts next :-* ::) ;D.

my buddy had a real artifact that was a cross but all of the prongs were perfectly the same length and they were pointy on the tips.it was not real big about the same size as yours , very lenticular .it was probably a necklace pendant , I guess.

That was a spall of perd and cooked and still tough. Figure that'll be better for jewelry anyway - you know won't break so easy. I'll tell ya, try one of these to test out your semmetry skills - man I was tired of workin on it.

Did you do any grinding on the face of it, or just the edges?

Post by: cowboy on January 23, 2010, 09:45:19 pm

Just the edges - back and forth, back and forth, etc - you know.
