    Funny you should say that. Here is a brooch (scanned in from a print) that I once made for a graduation party. The green thing in the centre is the LED and the battery box has a belt clip. Maybe you could use a button battery in the ring? Dennis.

    I like your thinking. The lid hasn't got a solid back so a light would shine through the marble . hmm thinking now ....do I know anyone who understands `lectrics? I got the idea for the fancy bezel from this forum, but I can't remember which genius posted it. Dennis, thanks, your praise is valued
