So I fitted these ingredients into a hole I drilled into the end. A copper tube filled with felted raw wool / steel wool atop a bit of steel wool, fixed with resin. Atop the module I fitted a crystal I had lying around. The ferrule will go on top, and I will fit copper wire spiral inlays into the handle as well as Haematite "super" magnets, as soon as I come across some that fit and that I can afford, plus some amber. As is, there is a mild effect (it warms in the hand but does not affect water trickles).
Bling!*ggg*
I like wooden sheaths. I have yet to make one though! I have made wood inserts into leather sheaths though and I feel they are much safer whilst being carried. And that birch wood has a beautiful grain.
AntwortenLöschenMarkus, would you consider removing the "comment verification" thing from your blog? I found some of the words practically unreadable and the numbers are even worse. Some bloggers have even given up making commments because of the difficulties in reading those words.
I hope it works, I just removed the comment verification.
AntwortenLöschenI love birchwood burl myself... my sheaths out of wood tend to be a bit ...ummm... top heavy?*ggg*... this one´s coming along nicely, though.
