Keeping it simple

Finally....... I'm going to do AppleFest this year.

So with the festival being only a month away I'm now in production mode.  I have quite a big inventory all ready but wanted to add some to it.  This week I got into the studio four days and got quite a few fine silver pieces started.   Next time I'm going to work on copper and bronze pieces.

Since I want to keep cost and prices down I decided to keep it simple.  I'm just playing with all the new texture plates I got recently and have some new favorites.


 
I used the flex shaft to shine all these pieces.  Guess I never did that many at one time before as my fingers were buzzing long after the flex shaft was turned off.

Then I added liver of sulfur to most of them.  I never polished that many at one time either. Going to need to take Aleve tonight.

Don't let it be said that working with metal is easy.
