Steampunk Bolo

 I am starting to make a little gift for my husband.  It is amazing to see what can be done with a simple mold shape.
 A few weeks ago I showed you this tray and started a week of "how to's" featuring it.
 This is what the tray looked like full of all my ideas.
 In one of the mold openings I dropped in some watch parts.  Envirotex Lite worked so beautifully for this clear glassy piece.
Luckily for me this shape is an industry standard.  I found this bolo tie component and my molded shape fit perfectly!

    I have a gem stone manufacturer about an hour away from our home. They often have a table of "leftovers" that I dig through. I got this component there. www.roberthalloriginals.com
