I like the feather ridge, too. I love how the balls are "captured". Nice design.

I just realized when I seen fishnpinball wire wrap the ring I said was Binghamite is actually Silkstone. Sometimes found in the same rock. They both come from the same area.

I had planned the small captured balls to be at the bottom but I had soldered them upside down. So instead of re doing it I put the bail on the bottom which is now the top.

Worked out, so who cares, right?

Nice job on those. The feather ridge is my favorite, too. I also like the captured balls. Also like the two second from last picture. Those are rings, right? Very cool looking.

Yes they're rings, I call them schmantzy pantsy rings .... just kidding. I liked that term "captured" @rockjunquei came up with and will probably use it when I send it off to consignment.

They are Schmantzy Pantsy™ rings! I also like the "captured" term to describe that technique. rockjunquie is pretty clever.
