Paperweight

Paperweight

Posted by XL on 11/16/2006
Honeycomb paperweight using some millies by me. They're pretty easy to make, just take some 4mm rod and create an octagon shape, then fume it and encase it in clear. That's the rough explanation. If anyone wants details, anyone is welome to write me an email for help in any subject or technique. Just throw me an email. This is the biggest paperweight I've made yet. It was a gift for my girlfriend. It took a lot of energy going into it. I started off with flattening 32mm rod into a patty the size of Mars. Cool. So this one is truly special. End product is almost 4in. wide and 2in. tall.
