Made this for the Getting Schooled Alley Cat. Brass. I really like how it turned out.
Brass Head Badge For The Getting Schooled Race
Author: admin
Shane, man of action, man of science, he reads far too much internets for his own good, and spends way too much time thinking about things. His fascination with human rights, human relationships, and general love of humanity often express themselves in a nerdy and ecological nature.
Brass Tweed Ride Head Badge
Made this for the 2009 Boston Tweed ride. Brass. What I learned is that Boston doesn’t have a very distinctive sky-line…so perhaps not the best for a major element of the badge.
Aluminum Whale Vs Squid Head Badge
Made this just to see what it would be like working with aluminum. Came out pretty well, not so thrilled with how aluminum takes a finish.
Katamari Head Badge
Made this for the Katamari Cat Alley Cat race…I personally was not very happy with how it came out. It was all very thick and I was very new to soldering.
It was brass, bronze, copper, and came out…meh.
Copper Crow Bike Charms
Little charms you can hang off your bicycle, I used them to practice different kinds of texturing. They actually make a very pleasant sound when you take a really sharp turn and they bounce off the saddle rails.
Bronze Crow Head Badges
Some more pictures of the bronze crows I made forever ago.
Goofing Around With Salt Water Etching
A collection of sample test pieces I made while learning how to do salt water etching. It’s actually really easy, I will write a post about how to make these sort of things later. I used copper, brass, bronze, and steel.
Copper Compass Journal
A very delicate copper compass, that was later attached to a Moleskin journal.
Copper And Brass Bicycle Journal
Two bicycles one cut from copper, the other from brass, and then attached to the front of a Moleskin hard cover notebook. A present for a friend. Ended up giving them a nice high polish.
Silver Letters For Book Project
Made this for a friend that was making a photo book out of an old piece of skate board, wanted the letters to stick out past where the paper would be bound. So thats what I did.
