    In the shop today

    Lots to catch up on after lights but also bad with some photos so here is a mash up of stuff upcoming and some complete all needed metal work in some way. The copper rivets on the watch strap were fun and it was not as easy as I thought requiring several attempts, the aluminum piece is for a...
