Sanrenmu 811 (8104) and leather stuff







Sanrenmu 9104 front scale/ Sanrenmu 813/ Sanrenmu 9104 CF conversion


Burr on the SRM 813


 ...also on the inside


Polished washers on a shoemaker's knife (Tina is a special brand for shoemaker's and horticulturist knives and tools) and removed burr



First take on a mold to cast a scale, not sure if it will work out as intended, esp. without destroying the mold




It was a nice try but it doesn't work this way :P



Many kids in my first son's kindergarten class have the same (good but cheap) winter boots
To make sure my he comes back with his I made him some "coins" from a badge I had lying around


The red one is made from a souvenir coin from a machine on mount Säntis
The heart was made for a friend of my wife who always has to search for her keys in her bag





A workmate wanted something made of a German 1923 coin because he likes the proverb "Sich regen bringt Segen" Hard work pays off is a good translation but I like "Keep your nose to the grindstone" more, obviously.

I tried two different ways to finish it so I decided to combine the two.






...and then there's the eagle. Next time I'll try to insert the typical parting of the hair and the moustache ;)







Mass shot of a test piece and some key pendants
