Specimen rings are going to be my 'thing' this season. The DH sent me to several gold smithing classes as a gift and now I'm all about making the biggest and prettiest. These are not for the weak wristed and delicate desert flower. These are for ladies who rock. Sparkly knuckle dusters! They have terrific heft and could do a lot of damage if used in a backhand. 300 cts and some granite for good measure.
Since it's a half rainy half sunny sort of weekend I think I'll hunker down in the shop and get my bling on. I dig working with a torch it's fun and dangerous! Our Shell bottles have been selling really well and the Austin Modern chair prototype should be ready this next week. Woot!
Someone suggested that I take up welding in order to actually be the one who produces the chair. Mmmmm how about No.
I've found an excellent metal sculptor here in Austin who knows what he's doing. That's better than me taking 3 years to learn welding in order to produce a prototype.
Outside of some random element using our business name to promote their junk, merrily we roll along.
