Shout out for laser cutting experts- help please! :)

Hi sorry in the lack of communication and neglect of my blog. Although recent time has been filled with moving home, going back to uni and trying to get my mind around what the heck to do for my degree show. Anyway I need everyone's help!! I am making a series of vessels

with saw pierced elements domed out of them, only I have a problem which i would really appreciate some advice on. Previously I was raising all the bowls and then saw piercing them out, which was a tedious task, as saw piercing such complex shapes on something that is raised, especially when the forms being saw pierced are complex can be extremely problematic. Do you know of a process that a laser can accomplish in cutting out a pattern on a domed surface, or is it virtually impossible as it would distort the image? Where can I go about getting this work done and exactly how can it be done?

I would really appreciate your time and knowledge,

Thanks Kellie :)

Please help me........im desperate

All I can say is that I love V's family but like all couples we needed some time out. So off we went to the waterfalls that I had visited at Christmas time. Such an amazing place anytime of the year, the water was so clean I couldn't resist a wee toe- dip. Just like me to not be happy with what I had, I tried to climb to a higher rock in order to put my feet at the top of the waterfall and off slipped my flip flop, to be devoured by the waterfall...must have been a hungry waterfall :P...after much time serching for my flip flop, I decided what the heck its just a flip flop. Then I realized that we had walked a great hight to reach these waterfalls. A walk that was full of inclining huge rocks that my poor tender feet had to endure, without shoes all the way down :(

Finally when we got to the bottom of the waterfall, we had to climb to the top of the hill where our trusty mo-ped was waiting paitiently for us to come back. Thankfully I climbed as far as I could and my lovely man climbed to the top of the hill and brought, the mo-ped to where I had stopped in the shade. Miraculously he took that wee mo-ped and our hefty bodies to the top of that hil :0

The new FANDABODOZY Acropolis Museum!

So after the Benaki Museum in the morning I begged my tired man to take me to the new Acropolis Museum and its Build. Not only is it stunning architechtialy and makes a great places to exhibit such amazing finds. It also has all the historical evidence of how the Acropolis was first built, loads and loads of beautifull marble statues, loads of old clay jugs and pots. Most importantly, the murial that used to around the Acropolis before us Brits stole it from the Greeks during the war :(...it was really sad to see how much history has been stolen form the Greek people. I think that the British Museum should give everything they stole back because after all its not the Brits History!!

Must see Museum!! Benaki GREECE

First I apologise for spelling mistakes...when I get excited typing I make loads of mistakes lol :P

If you are ever in Greece You must go and visit this museum, the Benaki Museum Greece. This is a private collection owned by a very rich family in Greece and unlike me for liking museums I couldn't resist visiting it again! I was so excited to go and see the beautifull collection yet again. The jewellery there just amazed me and it was right up my street, everything was sooo gorgeous and intricate in detail. It left me wondering just how long it would take to even make a bead in, especially concidering that most of the jewellery I loved was made 650 BC. When technology was not what it was today...these guys sure had allot of skill.

Anyway I want to show my favourite pieces from the museum listed bellow, starting with boat necklace and AMAZING earings...How cool are they!!!! I loved them, not even a baot fan but these guys were just out of this world, they were made with so much attention to detail. All the boat and necklace were made from filigree wire and enamel to give a touch of colour on the sials of the boat. Next I really liked the big chunky but feminine rings, bold and beutifull. I'll let you guys have a look and decide for yourselves which you like the most...for me it was hard to decide, I loved them all!

Sorry for the blurry photos (so ashamed) but I have hurt my arm and the bluriness is down to pain..but I was determined if yet blurry to take dam pics lol. After all I did get special persmission and i wasnt gona let that go :)

Petal Brooch and Earings

I just found these pictures in i-photo and thought I'd share. Both earrings and brooch are hand drawn onto stirling silver-sheet metal, hand drilled with a teni tiny drill, saw pierced out individually. Then once I have wet and dried the edges, I coated them in tar and etched by hand with a scribe a baroque print. Once the tar process is finished and everything is clean, I raised the petals with a pair of twezers and plated them in 24k gold. Quiet happy with them...have made many others that are the size of my thumb nail. Very cute indeed :)
