I just finished my latest project. Not the kind of thing I usually make, but my nephew asked me to make him a skull ring. I told him he could probably buy one on Amazon but he said he'd rather have one made by me. So how could I not? Excuse the photo quality. I'm still sitting at my work bench after having just finished with polishing it.

@martini The ring is made of argentium, an alloy of 96% silver and 4% copper. I've been working with sterling, (95%), for ages but recently switched to argentium because it's more resistant to tarnishing and fuses nicely without the need for solder and flux. It's a really beautiful material to work with.
