Chainmaille wrapped a geocoin

After much trial and error, I found that just opening a seam on full persian nicely clasped the coin, and I added a magician’s chain/jacob’s ladder chain to it, so I could play with it lol

DIY chainmaille tumbler

Almost night. Need tumbler. Don’t own one (never tumbled before). What do (already shook it by hand for like… 40 minutes).

Where there’s a rotating motor there’s a way. Not too fast, rubber band isn’t too tight. We will see if this lasts all night. Things inside are turning over, it’s doing more than just sitting on my end table for the night. See you in eight hours little chain!

Note: hard to see on video, but the tumbling media and chain are indeed turning over and over again in there.

Discovered in a pub

Surprisingly thick crisps with a healthy amount of flavour, the bag doesn’t lie. Really tasty, with a good solid crunch to them, was quite pleased.

Found a duplicate of a geocoin from 10 years ago!

WOOOH! I have found an unactivated geocoin on eBay that I had released into the wild years ago, which went missing a year later. I recently on a whim decided to see if such a coin was still around online anywhere, and one glorious eBay seller had this very coin up for sale!!!

I activated it just minutes after opening the package lol. Back to visiting events with me little Crikeycoin!

Re-reading my favourite book once again

I’ve read this book probably 10 times by this point, and I’m into it once again. Pulls me in just as hard as the first time I read it 😊

Just had to share, I love this book.

I painted my drum

The Ancestors told me that it was time to get my drum, so I found a place to buy one (don’t have the means of making it myself), and painted it with a likeness of my spirit name, The Eagle who Flies through the Heaven. Took a lot of time to get it all lined up, and I’m really happy with how it came out.

I wanted it the drumstick that it came with “paired” with it, but didn’t want it to attract undue attention, so I painted the sun emblem on the underside of the leather lol

A deck of Ranma 1/2 playing cards

I’ve had these cards sitting in this case for literal decades, I think they’ve been shuffled exactly once (I put them in order for this post). I won them in a student auction at the university I was attending in the late 90’s. They’ve been following me around since then, just always waiting for a time to be displayed or used (have them on display now).

If anyone wants to see a specific card, let me know and I’ll take a pic.

A sign map inside the London Underground tunnel

I found this so unusual. Who is this sign for? It’s a bit interesting to know we’re half a kilometre from the nearest station.

Chainmaille flowers (with tutorial)

I designed a chainmaille flower, based off of pictures of the 3 scale flowers I’ve seen online. I’ve never been able to find a free tutorial for them though (wanted to make one for my Nan), so I came up with this method, and posted the tutorial for it on instructables: https://www.instructables.com/A-Chainmaille-Flower/

I quite like how they came out. And yes Nan loved it 😊

My original pog slammer!

This has managed to keep kicking around with me after countless moves! I still have memories from when we were given these as kids.

Sadly, my original pog collection didn’t make it, but I did recently buy a random assortment off eBay, to show up sometime soon. In preparation, I dug out the ol’ slammer.

Pokémon Pikachu 2 GS - tribute video to DeepPocketMonster

Ohh, there’s a long story behind this, but the main reason I bought it in original packaging to begin with is because I was terrified of customs snapping open my electronics if loose (it’s happened before) to look inside, so I recovered my old childhood love this way.

Debated whether to hunt down the original type audio clips, but that felt too much like copying should I open it, so I recreated my own lol.

Hope you like! Little guy is sitting in my pocket counting steps now!
