Part of a screwdriver. Makita power tools parts. 11mm allen wrench Part Of A Screwdriver
To know about the Giggle Loop, is to become PART OF the Giggle Loop! @Nerdist (aka Chris Hardwick) decided to start a Flickr pool of "nerd collages" so this is my humble submission. I think it defines my nerdism rather well, yes? :) From left to right: Demon dog from Ghostbusters Sonic screwdriver Piece of the Deep 13 set from MST3K Netgear wireless router The Tenth Doctor "Yes We Did" Obama sticker iPod touch showing an episode of "The Totally Rad Show" "Wicked: The Grimmerie" "Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Watcher's Guide Vol. 3" World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Collectors Edition Pac-Man arcade machine Hallmark ornament Diecast Impala that came with my Supernatural Season 3 DVDs K-9 Broll Bearmantle action figure from World of Warcraft / DC Direct Delft pendant: detail of the tulips
A detail of the tulips and tulip leaves. This was the trickiest part of the project for me because I originally envisioned the tulips going farther up the sides of the bezel and it just didn't look right. I was stalled on this part of the pendant for quite a while until I finally hit on this idea of tucking them under the cab to keep the piece more vertical. I also had trouble with the X's. I couldn't get them quite right. I tried engraving them (though my skills aren't very polished to say the least) and letter stamps made them too vertical instead of squat and square. I finally ground off the tip of a small Phillips screwdriver and used that. It was perfect and just what I was going for. The blades on the windmill actually turn.
