Here are some pictures from my latest project making a woman's bangle (bracelet) from a alumilite cast piece of cholla and a stainless steel metal core. I started with a 4" cast cholla puck that I purchased from a fellow who sells it for turkey calls. I then used hole saws to cut the bangle blank, bored the ID to size, cut to width and glued the blank onto the SS core for support. After curing, I roughed the OD to size, filled some voids with CA and then began the same CA finish technique used on pens.
I have a 14 page tutorial that explains the process in detail. I will email the tutorial for free if you send me an email to bangleguy@gmail.com with an email address. Its a 2Mb PDF file.
(My wife and I are also addicted to EAN/NOX, just got our regs and bcds back from the annual service so we're thinking where to go next. It's been too long since the last Caribbean trip :sad
