I've been wanting to spend time actually recovering and refining for a long time. Today I spent half the day.

First button is from gold filled, other two are e-scrap.

14 grams total.

Hey, me too! I finally got some free time too so I started building a new martingale for my horse!

What's amazing is I was able to clean off my bench so I could work on this project. It would scare me to find out how many 100's of thousands of dollars worth of equipment have been scrapped on that bench!

What are the pretty square things called? I'm sure they must have a proper name.

Can I see the back of one? How do you attach to the leather? Rivets?

Even bigger question, when you've got the whole parade outfit, how do you keep it from tarnishing? I really want to see one in person...they are absolutely spectacular in pictures.

I had no clue such things existed until I was watching pawn stars and someone brought one in. Around here people mostly trail ride or your run of the mill 4h events, not a lot of parade dress.

Now that I'm really starting to get a handle on the basics I really want to start doing more metalwork. I used to love it.
