So it's been a while since I posted any work, but I finally found some time to make this little piece:



With the exception of the rivets, all the parts are recycled. The gears came courtesy of Maduncle and the Manufactory, the strap was from a broken marching band lyre, and the steel plate came from an old generator.

I've got the next six weeks off for mid-year break, so hopefully I'll be able to finish off a few more things. Thanks for looking!!

It is good to give new life to somethings old and discarded.  Nice cuff.

Thanks Smiley I've got a stash of generator parts, light fittings and fuse box components that I'm gradually working through.

Here's another one I threw together, the copper disks are watch faces with the enamel removed and the brass one is the back of a watch movement.



Still need to find a better ribbon, not happy with this one...
