I learned something useful this weekend. Usually, when Im drilling through the resin or pewter, I hold the item in my hand and use the rotary tool with the drill bit in it. Its sort of scary having a rapidly turning drill bit close to your hands and fingers. And as clumsy as Ive been lately, I know I better watch ...2 days ago -

I have a liking for things that look like awards and medals. So when my surprise package arrived, I was thrilled to see some real medals. Some I would have to carefully cast, they cant be taken apart, I may have to make partials and then re-cast. But these two are very fun, one is from the Centennial, the dates ...3 days ago -

Did you hear a loud "WOO HOO" last night around 6:00 pm when I went to the Post Office? It finally arrived, my copy of Belle Armoire Jewelry for Winter, so I could see the article about the collaboration between Deryn Mentocks designs and my humble cast pewter and fused glass!

As you start pulling all your best dinnerware and serving pieces out of their hiding places for your holiday meal, take a good look at them. Could they use a bit of tender loving care? Perhaps they’ve just been gathering dust and need only a regular wash, rinse, and dry. Or maybe they have not been cared for ...1 week ago -

I was messing around in the studio last night, finishing some requested items, and while I was waiting for some metal to cool -- no more touching with hands, no no NO --- my eyes turned toward some fused dichroic glass cabochons Id made earlier in the year. I guess with all the sparklies and shiny things at this ...1 week ago -
Egg Head

Authority: 590
This is a very unusual egg cup; clearly it is a skull and could be classed as being a little bit amusing, but not necessarily practical at the breakfast table. It has been made out of some sort of pewter and so has that look of something old and yet some people would like to eat their breakfast from this, are they ...1 week ago -

Well, the hands are cleaner today. However, I did manage to burn myself -- twice. A while back, you may remember, when I got a new soldering iron, I burned my left hand middle finger by accidently touching the business part of the soldering iron. It healed up, I just have a little scar. Hurt like crazy, though. ...1 week ago -

Ive been working on some special orders. I needed to make several Eiffel Tower charms for someone, and some more headpins. Ive been working on things for a while, and my poor hands are messy.

Metal bits from a RepRap
RepRap: Blog —
Authority: 121
OK, so as always I cheat a bit. I used the ancient art of lost-wax casting, substituting PLA for wax. It burns/vapourises away cleanly at low temperature and is relatively benign stuff. So, how do you go about turning your PLA RepRap output into metal? I took one standard-issue Mighty Reprap Power Ring in PLA as a ...1 week ago -

For this version of the Game Preview, I’m going to go Anti-Gameplan style.We should run the ball under 10 times, as we all [...]1 week ago -

Just something I dont like to do, but I do like the way the insides look. All the metal and gears, springs and wheels. Facinating. So I decided to compromise, ...2 weeks ago -
