Teeeeeth! and a PSA
I know they only sort of look like teeth, but I enjoyed making them (even though my wrist hurts now). The rounded ends are made by balling up the end of a wire, and the pointy ends are forged with my "messy" (textured) hammer. I only used a file a tiny bit, to get the very ends of the points right, which means there's very little waste in making them. They're between a quarter and a half inch each, I think.
With luck, they'll go on the Aspiring Metalsmiths challenge piece that I haven't entirely figured out yet :)
The other thing is this: I'm still kind of tired and overextroverted/brain-whiplashed from Wiscon, and things are going to be crazy at work for the next week (company's hosting a user group conference thing). I'll be squeezing in jewelry stuff wherever I can because I have one more pair of earrings to make and ship out ASAP for an Etsy order I got last weekend. And there's a new housemate moving in for the summer on Tuesday. In other words, I'm feeling short on time and brain and social energy, so I'll be less likely to do social stuff in person. But things should be better a week from now (well, more like the weekend after that, when I've had a few good chances to sleep in).
