Another Round of Ancient Artifact Bronze!

Howdy Folks,

Happy Monday! It's really cooling down up here in New England this week with highs expected only in the 70's. It's suddenly starting to feel very fall like after our scorching weeks in July and most of August. Still no rain in sight though.

Today I have another handful of Ancient Artifact Bronze tokens for you. I've been having some fun with these and will keep making them periodically in the months ahead. I also will have another group of the stoneware ones coming up shortly as well.  

Ancient Artifact Bronze tokens will run $55 plus shipping and the link is below. Thanks for stopping by as always, and have a great last week of summer ahead. 

All gone for now, thank you so much!

 

Timascus Keytons!

Happy Monday!

Well, after a brutal past couple of weeks heatwise, where we were also hit with a double whammy of unrelenting drought, we finally got a drenching rainstorm over the weekend which the parched ground absorbed in about two seconds. And now the temperature has finally abated and it looks like we have at least a week of very comfortable temperatures to look forward to ahead. Still no rain to speak of in the forecast though. 

I have been quite busy on projects. I'm almost done with the little ThumbNail tools. I will have more Ancient Artifact tokens coming up soon. I have a few small remainder batches to clean up and finish as well. I just finished a drawing for a new tool called the Skeletaur, and that is about to get cut this week. I am finally going to cut a tool called the SupaWrench that I had initially planned two years ago but put on hold. So lots of stuff in the hopper for the end of summer and early fall.

Today I have a small batch of Timascus Keytons for you! They are quite spectacular and are all different in pattern and coloring. These are super hard to capture in a photograph in this poor light today, but the colors are quite vibrant. I also have a couple that are heat colored and are a bit more subdued. I forgot to mill lefties in this batch though, sorry about that, and I don't think there were any in the other half batch either which I will have coming up soon.

Timascus Keytons will run $95 plus shipping and the link is below. Thanks for popping in today and I hope your summer has been stellar so far!   

Sold out, thank you so much!

 

 

More Ancient Artifact Bronze Tokens

Howdy Folks,

It's super hazy here in New England today, as it was yesterday, from the Canadian wildfires. Feels gross outside and so indoors is where it is at for right now.

For years I have had my simple product cards made at Staples. Well, they changed their print department around this spring, and so now I have to change the way I get my cards printed. So you can expect various formats and different looks for a while until I can settle down with a repeatable template that I like. This is the kind of thing that drives me nuts and wastes a lot of my time when I could be making products instead of dealing with a bunch of software changes. And since I don't have a staff I end up having to do everything myself, which is just fine, but still annoying when these little glitches come up that must be related to. Anyhow, the new cards will no doubt end up much nicer than the old ones so this will probably work out just fine.

I've certainly been having a lot of fun with these Bronze Ancient Artifact Tokens! I will definitely be making more of them as time permits, but since making them is a slow process it's really hard to make very many at once. So I will be making small batches every once in a while between tools and other items.

Ancient Artifact Bronze Tokens will run $55 plus shipping and the link is below. Thanks for coming by this afternoon and hope your week is going great. ;) 

All gone, thank you! More coming soon though.

 

 

Limited Edition Copper Dice!

Howdy Folks, and Happy Friday!

Well we finally got a little rain yesterday and overnight. We've been in a pretty severe drought for the past month with only a couple of showers here and there. So a lot of trees are dropping their yellowing leaves way earlier than usual, and I have had to water my garden almost every day. It's always this way it seems, one year it's too rainy and another year is too dry.

I'm still working steadily on various projects and will get some more tools finished next week. In the meantime I decided to tackle the old blank Copper Dice that have been sitting on a shelf for years. They have a nice patina on them already from age. I can only use my smallest stamps on them since they are small, but I found some good ones that would work well in the space. I only screwed up a couple too, hehe...anyhow, these are clearly hand stamped dice and they feature a variety of stamps, not always lined up quite perfectly! I had some fun with the keyhole ones which have regular keyholes for five sides and then the Number Six side has a single large skeleton key. This is a small batch and I won't be able to make any more of them once these are gone.

Hand Stamped Copper Dice will run $75 per set of two and the link is below. Thanks for popping in today and hope your weekend ahead is excellent!

Sold out, thank you so much!
