There is definitely an irony in there somewhere. :)

Also if you struggle with technique (you've probably got the hang of it) there are loads of youtube videos to help.

Once I got going it became remarkably like cutting a rubber injection mold for jewelry making, once that clicked I went allot faster. I wonder how many other jewelry designers have noticed that? Now that's a weird thought...

I'd even wager that i could clean a fish much faster with the surgeons blade I usually use for cutting molds... Now that would actually be hilarious! :whistle: Bet I could get every little bit of meat off the bones too. :-P For now anyway I'll keep practicing using the fillet knife.

You should find a jewellery designer forum and ask them. I'm sure they won't think you're a freak at ALL. :)

Wow, lol, you have no idea how funny what you just said really is! I already am the odd ball out among jewelors, they'd have me committed I bet! "so I was wondering if anyone here was ever opening a mold and thought, man this is just like cleaning a fish, only less smelly...?" Rofl! :laughing3:

Today I harvested my Arugula and Swiss chard. Holy crap Arugula is spicy! I never knew it was spicy. Washed the bugs off and bagged everything up. And now for the pictures! Image Also, has anyone ever seen a strawberry with leaves coming out of it? This is just plain weird! Image

On a totally unrelated note, these are some stainless steel beads I made tonight from nonmagnetic stainless pipe. These are for an order from my sister. It's fun making shiny things from dull things.Image

That hammered one took longer than all the other ones combined... Lotta work for the results and still they need detailing to be complete. This is how I pay for my aquadiction... Hehe!

The jewellery was simply a distraction whilst I strained myself to focus on the blurry outline of what seemed to be an abnormally large big toe and petite sidekicks. Has Charlie met his match? -Nooo it couldnt be?

My left foot anyway would get disqualified due to "implants"due to a bit of swelling in my big toe from getting smashed. So those "aren't real" ... :mrgreen: sorry to disappoint.
