There's a first time for everything, and that's about the first time I've seen the term "mandant". Thankfully I wasn't drinking coffee while reading this post.
New keyboard would've been necessary.
Lovely work!!

Very nice Tom. Did you do the finish on the wheels or tumble them once shaped? I assume you made the caps too, way cool. That tiger eye really pops in that form. Cheers

Thanks everyone, these were done all on the wheels and I did the silver work as well ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . That being said I plan to make some more and after the general shape is done throw them in the vibe. Some of the ladies at work want them for their men. Tom I got to quit getting hair in my pictures, got more hair on my chest than my head!! Aimee I hate when I laugh with a mouthful of coffee.

Thanks James,
Pat all I have been making is women's pendants or as the new term could be "fendants" But I wanted to try something that men could wear. This "tooth" design is liked by some of my frieds, or they wear them out of sympathy LOL.
Thanks again

The tooth design is popular with the men around here. Yours are particularly nice.
