About five years ago I discovered a parent at the school I work in lived in the house I was born in. She invited me and my mother round to have a look to see how it had changed.
One end of the house was 17th century and had this huge old key which made me decide I wanted a much smaller replica made out of silver to wear as a pendant.
I searched for weeks and eventually found someone on the internet who said they could do it from the photo I have but at the time it was more than I could afford. I had no idea how he would do it and I didn’t care I just wanted it! A couple of years later when I could afford it I realised I had deleted him from my favourites and as hard as searched I couldn’t find him again.
For the next two years I periodically trawled the internet hoping I would find a way to do it myself. I eventually came across Silver Clay and got hooked on that but never found a way to replicate the key.
Now I don’t use Silver Clay as much and after watching copious amounts of You Tube videos and reading this forum can make lots of different things out of sterling.
I still want the key and would love to be able to make it myself but have to admit with my limited knowledge and experience and total confusion about casting and all that don’t think I would be able to unless you know something different………..
