Doubly Awesome for raising awareness about animal trafficking (savepangolins.org) and for sharing this cool pendant. I like the use of glass with the clay.

Have you tried this method? It works for a variety of woods and hardwoods, and for haze to dark pitch resin. Try using this method in combination with a razor blade scraper. Use a new razor blade because burrs or even corners of the blade can scratch glass. I don't know about scratching tempered glass, but razor blades can definitely scratch window glass; it's a rookie house painter mistake.
I believe the reason this glass cleaner works it because wood ashes and water make lye, a strong alkali. Coal ashes do not appear to make lye, so forgive my suggestion. A better option is to save campfire ashes or a neighbor's wood ashes in a pail for later use. Hardwood might make a stronger alkali.

What is this drink traditionally called in Asia? Looks delicious. Does the coconut and rice thicken the juiced greens liquid?
Awesome. Thank you for sharing! Interesting to see various techniques and tools for working with stone. Nice use of offcuts or otherwise discarded pieces!
