Richard Gordon Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 (edited) Like most , I don't have the money to put into a geniune set of oakleaves so I got myself a space filler...This started off as a mudane set of '57s in 925 silver. I have some needle files and a mini power tool so I cut and filed all the excess, frosted it and polished the highlights. A few years later a nice patina has formed.Just a nice space filler.Rich Edited August 2, 2005 by Richard Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me a long time to figure it out and for reasons of caution not something I'd like to reveal in public. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it's only a representation I thought the EK2 would make a good partner for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
