daisy

yiiiihaaa! finally i had some time to start on a ring i had been thinking of the past few days...

and did it feel good to be at workbench again. the ring was an excercise on filing in a curved line... and i m pretty pleased with it, although if my teacher saw it he might only give it a 7.5/10...

still, i think it s cute and i call it my 'daisy'-ring:


the first few filings


slowly getting its shape



after a first good sanding


and a final polish


and now i m off to the store to get some stuff for dinner!
