Am I missing something? That looks like 16 points. 8 points on the flat and 4 each on the 3D sides. Someone straighten me out. Where are the other 2 points?

So I put two together on my square like I did before. (Forgot to take a picture, so here is the one from Tuesday.) and put them on top of the "table."

I'm so confused now. Where do I put the hanging loop? I'll just pick a likely-looking spot. I like to put a wire or piece of braided wire through the ring when I have a point like this with no support.

All done - once it's washed and polished. I'm not going to patina this one, so I will use Simichrome polish. It really makes the solder shine!
(How many points was that, Jim?)

See I knew I was missing something. I didn't gather from your set of pictures prior to my comment that you weren't finished. It looks much better now. I also knew someone would straighten me out. What are the triangle bevel sizes and are the others triangles cut down to a point on the base end? Where can I buy Simichrome Polish?

LOL, Judy - but I agree on all points! (Oh dear - that was'nt intentional - but I like it!!) I was wondering where those last 2 points would go - never thought of them with a 'second ' point like those in the 'basic' piece..... Thanks again, Rebecca. |

Marsha, the first one I tried I was pulling my hair out...even chipped one of the bevels throwing it down....lol But with the some encouragement from Joan directions Rebecca posted and following them step by step it was a breeze. Cant wait to try this one! Thanks again Rebecca for posting these!!  |
