Hey man, I love your Instructables. I made a slight variant of your Phillips screw driver earrings and they were a big hit with my girlfriend and people comment on them all the time. I really love the style of your pieces. They truly capture the personality of the materials you use while look refined and elegant at the same time. Your projects give me a halfway point . I love metal and all that industrial stuff, but am not a fan of gifting purchased jewelry or pendants. It's great that your Instructables could be done by anyone without a mastery of metal work and with very few tools! (Also, I've gotten some wrist pain from hammering nickels. Have you ever experienced this?) Anyway, thanks so much for posting these great Instructables!
Cool! Thanks for taking the time to write. Come to think of it I think I did get some wrist pain back when I was hammering out a few dollars worth of nickels. If that happens take a break. Any constant repeated motion can throw you for a loop if your not careful. I'm glad your having a good time metal working on a tiny scale. Thanks again for the comment. Brent.
Hey! I'm also a Las Vegas Maker, and I'm wondering if you could get me the address of the shooting range where you get you're shells. I sold a pen and pencil bullet shell set at a charity auction once and they went for a pretty hefty price, but I got those shells from some friends, and they aren't ready to part with any more at the moment..
You have no idea how much you inspire me. I love working with metal and you've taught me so much. AND YOU MAKE ME WANT A METAL LATHE SOOOOOOO BAADLY!!!
I just want to say thank you for all the dedication and effort that you put on your works. I have never seen someone that teaches an art with this amount of details. you are the kind of guy that makes other people stop playing video games and watching movies to start making something that makes yourself proud. Thank you so much for all your instructables. Hope you continue.
I first found you through your zinc and copper pendant. Within a day I had made the pendant and had subscribed to you. When each new instructable comes out, I hurry to read it and find out what you've done to what might be called junk otherwise. Because of your work, I am now planning to start selling my own jewelry. Thank you so much.
