A simple bow with arrows, the bow is copper and the rest is brass. Medieval weapons make for simple but effective earrings, and work well for your next TTRPG game :D

I have also made dangling flail earrings that were fun, but maybe less obviously recognisable than these.

      I don’t think it deserves that much praise, it’s not as hard to make as it looks.

      I actually want to encourage people who could have access to the tools and materials, to try if they are interested, even if they lack confidence that they’d be good at it. I was in a completely different subject (computer science) and now this is becoming my main activity, and undoubtedly there’s a lot of people here that would be much more talented than me.

      In the end, what I’m clumsily trying to say is: to anyone that wonders if they should try it, and who has the opportunity, go for it

        This is how I felt, and hence I believe the work what it should do - make you feel alive more, and make you love be alive!
        Thank you for the feel… and for actually genius idea for the hole for the 3 arrows!
        How it sparkles… reflecting on the warm Sun near the so blue magnificent Sea, and the wind is… in peace…

    This is beautiful and timely. The bow and arrow are symbols of the goddess Artemis.

    It would be so cool for one of the astronauts to have a set of these.

      I use metal plates that I cut with a jeweler’s saw, and polish them with a rotary tool with polishing bits

        With a jewelers saw!? Impressive details, did not know it was possible to cut that small with such a tool.

          I’m using blades that are extremely thin, so I can cut lines that are maybe 0.1mm wide with it

            I saw you talked down your effort in another comment, but this just shows you are even more skilled than expected, i would assume people would use a laser cutter nowdays but here you go and do some really skilled precision cuttign with a saw!

              Well, it started for me purely as a hobby, so the laser cutting didn’t really feel like an option; I only started actually giving/selling crafts after years of just crafting for fun.

              But thank you for the compliments, it’s very nice of you!
