It looks ‘low tech’ but it took ten tools (powered by hand, water & electricity) to make this lovely necklace. See below for list of tools. Also not as big as it looks — the copper tubing is only 4 inches. Copper tubing found in the road down to Lake Eildon. And the Australian 1953 penny — found by Ray when digging around the house (built in the 1950s) at Bonnie Doon, Victoria, Australia
Tools in order of use:
- Water (Lake Eilden & later pressure hose)
- Stick (by shore)
- Wooden skewer
- Plastic tie
- Wire
- Screw driver
- Hammer
- Vise
- Kitchen scale (to weigh so we could bet on how much the remaining stones & dirt inside weighed. We weighed again when completely cleaned out — Ray won — hey Ray, do you still have the numbers?)
- Compressed Air
