I could always quit while I'm ahead with this one -- my 2nd cab(?)... first time with relatively hard material. It's Ohio flint I cut with my WF and went to town on with the Dremel. Maybe I'll consider it a preform and shape/bevel/contour it when I get my 6" SiC grinder wheels (the stock AO's are not having it). My fingers were sore enough to warrant the post whether it's finished or not, heh.

Nifty shape. That could make a really interesting piece of jewelry when it's finished.

This is a pretty fantastic shape. I can see it wire wrapped when finished.

That is a different shape. Wire wrapped it could be pretty cool. When I saw the title of your post I'm thinking "What's he doing with poo?" Can you tell I have a young child?

Holy smokes, you really did go to town on that one! Looks good though, an interesting form for sure. Since you're diving right into advanced freeforming, why not try some compound curves to accentuate that form into a 3D shape? ;D
