Just as this picture was approved I was pulling the last knot on the chocker.It's the first finished piece I've done in years and considering everything I'm still very proud.I uploaded what it looks like done they should be up when their up.Sorry had to take a POTty Brake.OK the pic at the top is of the beads I want to use next,and some of my stoner hemp tools.I want to make a necklace like the one I wore,with at least 2 or 3 levels all hanging in unison.I would love some ideas as to what I could do that would be crazy unique.

Just looking at this picture makes me want to share how I came across them.I had a buddy call me up out of the blue and says"You got an electronics degree don't you"I said yea and he told me about this cill job building Spectrometers and said I could start whenever I wanted.Now this was after I hadn't had a job in over ten years at the time because of the accident,but sounded pretty cool to me so I took the job.The owner of the place was involved with discovering the first lazer.In fact his first company was called CVI which stood for the roman numerals =106.And 106 was the wavelength of light they ran through ruby dust to get the first Lazer. The job entailed making the spectrometers from soldering the boards all the way to balancing the mirrors with a light source so the beam would bounce off 2 mirrors and then hit a grating.Crazy delicate work.Because no 2 mirrors are exact I had to in a dark clean room positon the mirrors perfectly then put a dab of black super glue(it had to be black so it wouldn't absorb any light)to keep the mirrors aimed at the grating.And alot more.One of the jobs I did we were subcontracted by NASA to make 12 of them,and I made all 12 by myself,1 might even be in space lol.Imagine a stoner working for NASA ha ha.Anyway when I started they let me pick out what tools I wanted,and I had to get the hemostats with the curved tip for your smoking pleasure.Also the reverse tweezers are superb as roach clips.

I was always good at making those thread bracelets...never got around to trying hemp though.

If you loook closely you can see a second shroom suspended in the glass at the bottom,it's the ants pants.

that bead is awesome looking...I like looking at beads when I go to craft places...just never see any like that

The quartz is gorgeous. Nice size, too. are you going to secure it in a base or secure it with your hemp?

[PFlynn]

This is the finished chocker I,m pretty proud of it.I spaced the small side beads farther than usual because I wanted them to complement the side of the persons neck.When relaxed it will be a thick solid mesh.Not too shabby, eah.

I'm going to try with the hemp,but I have never done something like that but want to do a 3 layer necklace like the one I wore.The way I have them set up is how I picture it in my mind.The hardest part will be figureing out how manny strands to use to have the 3 strands hanging and have enough strands for all the beads.Sounds hard,and will be.

Sorry this one is so blurry,I,m going to chop it because I have a better plan for it.I can do so much more with the bead than how I started it.

But before that one I'm going to do the whole shroom one.I can picture how I want it but I have no idear how to set the crystal.I have had the worst migrane all night and am out of all medsI;m a wreck today but will do what I can.


I think I might cris cross the hemp on the crystal like you see when someone has a arrowhead on a necklace,the only problem is with an arrowhead their are ridges for support.Not so on the crystal,I'm thinking of useing super glue under the hemp to support it.I wish I had another way,If any of you have any thoughts let me know.

You have a great talent for making those. They are quite awesome!
