this is actually a few pieces of the clinker stuff that i did manage to get a little shine after trying the Tin Oxide. (the lighting is terrible, we've had some storms here the past few days.) pinbacks i got from Fire Mountain Gems, and i used 330 epoxy to glue.... forgot to add a measurement reference, but they are a little over an inch, maybe inch and a half in the long dimension... and the back: thanks for looking, KD

Very nice job KD. I'd never believe that was pet wood.

That pet wood is so smooth! How long in coarse? Just did some and brought it out early 'cause I like the ridges, but Now that I see the smooth... cookie

Hello KD! Those are great looking pins and look very professional! Maybe later on when I finish learning how to tumble I will try to learn some jewelry making to see how to use my rocks. I just love pins and pendants! Great job KD!

Those are really nice. That gives me an idea for some of my smaller stones that are really too small to wrap. Thank you for sharing. Tami

KD, those are really neat! I have thought of a whole list of things to do with my finished rocks, but never thought of a pin! Great idea! You do know that I will steal your idea and make some pins, don't ya? ;D Of course, since we live thousands of miles apart, I don't think we'll be in direct competition! I'm thinkin' matching pin, earrings and necklace! That would be neat! llana
