I really like that greenstone pendant. The detail work adds a nice touch.

Never sure what I am going to do until after I make the bezel and solder it onto the back plate. A lot of the material I use for detail work is just scrap pieces laying in a tub. Shake the tub and get a new idea. |

Yah you betcha makin ice, report from Lake of the Woods this morning 24 inches and fish are biting. They said don't worry because it is still early and lots of time for the ice to thicken up. I had to raise the Prehnite a little so I experimented maybe doing a doublet. I put different colors behind it and nothing looked like I thought it should. Ended up cutting another piece of flat stock and polishing it. Looks alot better natural. |
