very nice :good2:
you've been giving me some great ideas lately with all your bullet pieces, especially those very cool earrings
we've got a very active gun community here, my bolt action pens are popular at a local gun range .....
care to share what kind of pricing structure you get for these and your studded earrings ?
pretty soon I'm not gonna be able to turn for a while, looking for something to fill the void and keep me productive ;-)
 
Les, those are sharp!! I would really be interested in making a few. If you made these from bare 9mm and parts, I would love to see your process. If you bought some or all parts I would like a link to the vendor.

Your work is always eye catching.:good2:
 
Very cool Les.
Looks like you have sparked a few eyeballs here. I think it's official now.....you have your own groupies....:sarcastic:

Allen,
I buy new Brass casings and FMJ bullets from my local gun/ammo supply store.
I get my Swivel key ring kits from Lee Valley.
Polish the brass casing on my lathe with Autosol metal polish.
Drill out the casing primer pocket to 15/64"
Press the key ring swivel into the 15/64" primer pocket hole
Press the bullet into the casing neck to get a total bullet length of 1.169"
To help avoid tarnishing I apply 4 coats of lacquer using my "Dipping Method".
