    Default BSA Aluminium Bracelet

    Latest product of my frantic tapping. An aluminium bracelet engraved with the BSA Motorcycles logo and "Three Rifles" emblem.

    (Apologies for slightly rubbish photos. Will try and grab some better ones tomorrow)

    Thanks. Done for a mate of mine who rides an old 1950s BSA. He'd already got the t-shirt so needed something different!

    Love that!
    My husband has his 60s BSA in bits in various places around the house, shed, garage and more. I think the petrol cap is still in the cutlery drawer. He says it's a project....

    Yup, sounds like a project to me. I have a racing car that's been in a similar condition for a number of years. All quite in order

    Anyway, back to the jewellery... Thanks for all the compliments everyone, always nice to have your input on my metal scratching antics.

    The bracelet looks incredible-haven't ventured into engraving yet.

    Thanks Graham. Not been at it that long myself, haven't really invested heavily in tooling or anything. All my gravers are made up from odd bits of tool steel I've come by, ground to geometries arrived at by trial and error and mounted in whatever bit of dowel or steel rod I've got lying around. The hammer's just a bog standard small pin hammer from a hardware store.

    Really nice work, and the engraving is awesome if you've done it by hand. Wow!

    Great job! I have a new appreciation of the skill involved in hand engraving as I'm trying it myself and it's currently exceeding my frustration tolerance!
