I have had bypasses and stents, I have some peculiarity with my kidneys ( not life threatening ), I have ankylosing spondolitis ( terrible thing, having your spondle ankylosed ), stenosis and a prosthetic left eye.

On the topic of Ash

What about Volcanic ash? Ash is ash right? - I imagine pens cast out of Mt. St Helens, Kilauea, or some other ash would be unique and have a potential market.

I've seen glasswork done out of volcanic ash, and it is pretty, I wonder if similar results could be had out of PR?

In fact you might get ahold of this group - they look like the type who would/could market these types of pens: http://www.pacificnorthwestshop.com/
 
He flew with a translator to LifeGem in Chicago from Japan because he didn't want her to be alone. He waited there until they and I completed our work and flew back home with the ring. It kind of chokes me up still to hear the story.

Kilauea ash. Make sure it stay's on Hawaii. We all know what happens when you take something from her after seeing that Brady Bunch episode. :biggrin:

Uhh...my next statement may suck the life out of you a bit, but...the Brady Bunch was just a little bit before my time. I remember it being on, and I remember part of the theme song, some of the names et. al - but I can't for the life of me remember any single episode let alone the Kilauea episode you mentioned.

Sorry...
 
2 years ago, i made an order of 17 deluxe pillbox keyring, laser engraved with a woman's name and 2007. The custommer came to my place with a little box, put about a tea spoon of ashes in each keyring and ask me to seal the thread with epoxy so it wouldn't open. That was his wife and he gave a keyring to evey one of his childrens and grand childrens so they can carry her with them.

It's perfectly legal here to do this.
 
I'm surprised so many are being grossed out by it. Interesting dynamic here on IAP.

I'd vote for casting it Jon. Throw some pearl powder in there and see what you come up with!
