Homemade Heavy Kilt Pin ready for a Gale

[ronin6290]

Guys.. thank you for the encouragement and feedback. I had been thinking the same about wearing the pin higher. Makes sense and I also like the look. Ah! Wood thinly cross sectioned. I really like that notion. Wood is mostly what I've enjoyed working with in the past. I like mixed materials that show contrast. Many things to explore. Again, thanks this was a first for me. First kilt related item I've ever made. So thanks much on the feedback. In regard to making the magnet work the trick is to find one just powerful enough so the pin is secure but so that it does not seek out other metals to stick to. Rare earth magnets are very light, small and powerful and come in many sizes. Cheers for your morning. A bit of fresh air today here. Maybe I'll stumble onto some materials that would make a good project.
