I wish I could stay with one hobby, but I'm like a grasshopper~ but I thought I'd share my latest work. It does involve wire working, and now if I can only figure how to integrate more lapidary, I'd be happy!

The heads are wire wrapped of course, and I did consider how to cut and drill my own beads from my pounds and pounds of rough, but it was too machine heavy to consider, lol. (I can manage a screwdriver every other time) The rest is mostly chainmail, a modification of the Dragonback weave. They're bracelets.

If you want more lapidary, dragon's need a treasure to guard. Maybe some calibrated faceted stones for a little treasure pile.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
