    Star Wars Sgian Dubhs

    It was a long project for me due to lack of workspace, limited knowledge of tools and limited amounts of skill. I have never attempted anything remotely to woodworking or fashioning anything out of antler. This message board was a great help. So with my Dremmel I was able to do the following:

    The presentation boxes:



    I placed a label on the insides of the tops with what it was , who it was for, and who made it (sorry for the crappy pictures):



    More to come..

    The Rebellion

    My Buddy Nick's is a Rebellion SD. I wanted a more military look to it.





    They really liked them. I would like to thank O'Neille, Arlen, Raptor, Panache, Tartan Hiker and all the other members who posted how to threads that really helped me with this project!! It helped me give a really great gift to two really nice guys.
    Now I am going to go back to easy projects like.. kilt making!
    Happy holidays,
    Sara

    The gifts you make are the ones that you and the recipient treasure most.

    Good show Sara!

    Merry Christmas

    I really like those. The boxes and the label are a neat touch. To be able to do all that with a Dremel is amazing.

    Those are really nice glad they were well recieved. That was a wonderful idea and they came out great.

    Very Cool

    This summer the King family was able to go to the 30th anniversary Star Wars convention. I almost bought a Tuskan Raider pouch with Kryatt dragon claws for a sporran, but it was way too large. Do you make any other Star Wars accessories?
