And another thing
Let's see. Hmmm, I also picked up an eight inch saw frame. That's going to make life big time easier. And a book on making metal beads. And wouldn't that be spiff, to make some metal beads of a size to fit with my organic, enameled beads for my "tribal" necklace. Boy howdy.
And I asked, hey, you guys know anything about tumblers and such and I got a bunch of information and am pretty much sold on getting a vibratory six quart. Only $299. The next step up is the last step up, the magnetic and that's where the money really gets real. Now I have to figure out my shot requirements. Might try both, the walnut hull with rouge and the assorted sizes of steel shot. And from time to time fellow students have odd polishing needs and I could work something out with them. But know that I won't. I'll just do it for free. Sigh. I'm too nice. What the hell kind of Capricorn am I anyway?
Life is good.
Nikki is sort of commissioning an earring sort of project. And I love a challenge. I do. I do. Amber with kumboo and also funky. Just one earring, not a pair. Asked her if she likes the earcuffs. She's loving of the earcuffs. Hmmm, now this is where my diabolical plan for making an alginate mold of an ear might come in handy. Hmmm, and I have a source for alginate, don't I, my pretty?
And let's see: so many emails I've promised, so little time. Need to send a link about The Cats' House to Bob for Martha. Need to send much jewelry knowledge to John so that he can talk jewelry smart to that girl. Need to send links to Sandi about this and that, including the addy to the yahoo group and a link to Lewton-Brain and fold forming and stuff about mokume gane and the Japanese alloys. And hell, probably need to resend to Cree and all. But at least I have this reminder to myself here. What I do with it, who knows.
And I don't know but that mood hamster doesn't look content, more pole-axed. But maybe it's just me.
