Cat tower from scraps:



It all comes apart to travel easy.

I'll need to dig to find picts of my other work.

It's a setting worthy of such a jaw-dropping piece of geology. Fantastic work.

Is it a very stunning setting and highlights the stones well.      

Thank you for the complements!

There becomes a point when the diamond can be too big......

That ring passed that point 24 cts ago.....

I think you hit the point of too large to wear when you get to something like this:

108.36ct D, Flawless



It's available and I might be interested in trading for your cat tower!

That's an awfully realistic looking cat.

It is a real cat!  You silly.   

[Speedbag]

That's an awfully realistic looking cat.

Especially one made from scraps.

No, that's the real thing!

The center stone is a 19ct (E, VS1) radiant cut and the side stones are 3ct (E, VS1 & 2) trillion cut each. The mounting is made out of platinum.

No CZ work out of my shop!

19ct? That doesn't look big enough to me to be 19. Just based on the ring size for comparison, it looks like 4-5. Granted I don't know much about stones. Is there anything else besides size that ct is used for?

BTW, I'm not doubting you, it just sounds funny to me...

It's hard to make a large stones/ring look and fit like a smaller piece, I guess that the mission was accomplished.

To give you a better idea of size of the stone:

-a 5ct would measure roughly 8.25 x 6.25mm

-this stone measures 18.53 x 14.23mm

You can have this one-we can always make another.

this is my kind of thread...























the hand is made entirely of punches, files, chisels, and star drills and a red oak log

the outdoor piece is installed in Jonesboro, LA in front of a nonprofit college alternative learning center

the kiln is a cone 10 soda type at LaTech's ceramics lab, that door articulates to be slid straight into the kiln opening(trick) and the door arm is made of 2" rebar

the saw bike can be ridden and operates alot like it looks, but it definately pedals!!

and the tattoo machine I made for a local tattoo shop and after being dicked around regarding the payment I collected my shit and now it lives in my bike shop

I've more but this was most everything done in 2009, I haven't had time to do shit in terms of making since the divorce and new business(September), but I've a stash of used bike chains and cables that will undoubtly sacrifice all on the workbench alter
