Description These three key chain series i fabricated are made of copper, brass and silver nickel and found gizmos such as bolts, screws and watch parts. When i produced these i thought of machine parts and engines, i love the look of these two and wanted to make objects that could be used and admired at the same time.
Originally it was going to be a series of six key chains that would transform from an enlongated abstract piece into the sixth piece that would become a "machine ninja throwing star". I only made three of them as i had originally designed them for a christmas gift for my boss. I sort of ran out of time and ended up making only three of them and giving them away to my boss who by the way was very impressed. It was the very first hand-made gift he had ever received in his life and was moved by the effort and craftmanship.
I am extremely satisfied with their concept and their aesthetic. I really like the way they turned out. These are my babies and i am very, very pround of them.

Hahahaha, I know EXACTLY what it's like to run out of time on a project like that. Absolutely beautiful pieces--are they made from pieces you found or is is %100 fabricated?
