not many parts here but still came out nice.. looking back at the process i realize there's more involved than I really think about any more.
I hand cut the opal that is used as the eye. Its sort of mostly blue with hints of green.
if anyone wants to see all the progress shots they are here [link]

this was going to be a pendant but I sort of changed my mind, decided I liked it better as a broach.

Wow, this is great! How do you get such clean and smooth cuts on the circuit boards? I've used hacksaws and jigsaws and all manner of things, but I can never make it look that good.

theres not any method of cutting that's perfect.. i break a lot of blades. using a hack saw is a waste. theyre made from fiberglass and epoxy. rapidly dulls any blade .. cheap thin sharp blades work fine for a short time.
