copper sulfate+sulfuric acid+water+monomer+annodes+12v and you should be all set This process has been preformed for ages, is actually quite an old technique from jewelers, its a trial and error thing, everything is a variable

i like the one way on the right... the mouthpiece is really good. we have been getting a few request for jhooks on dabzilla... why dont you rock out some and put them on the 4mation section.. i bet you could make a few bucks.

 

[Xchadb]

Haha the last one is about 2ft tall

 

[tepictoton]

definately interesting 'outside of the box' stuff

Looks like one of those walking sticks had a nail inserted somewhere somehow (just joking here)

Looking forward to seeying your progress
