A bandit took my diamonds

[SteveJ]

I like the bandit kit from exotics since it challenges me to do something special with the center band. After putting diamonds in the band and on the finial I decided the barrels needed them as well.

All the cuts were made on the laser.

The finial is a little disappointing with the variation in the color.

Challenge you it did… and you succeeded!
The band It is one of my favs for that exact reason. Beautiful execution!

Well done, Steve! All looks great, but I really like the top finial. The center band is great. I love what you are doing.

The finials are always a nice touch. I'm surprised that more people don't do them. I've found the hardest part is punching out the existing finial!

Nice! That's a lot of diamonds. Looks like a lot of very well done work.

Never thought I would have seen the day on this forum where you sold out. Went to the dark side and lasers. That is like me a scrollsawer for a long time going to use a laser to cut my work. That will never happen. Have fun with your new toy. Pen looks good. I like the Yin Yang look.
