Drilling

August 3, 2008

The gold color of the drill bit is its titanium nitride coating.  The curly plastic is some translucent PVC, I think.  And the gray ‘floor’ is the cast-iron platform of my drill press.  But the result was something I just had to share with you…

    Looks like a museum T.rex wrapped around the axle. :)

    Actually quite a pretty image.  Almost like lavender flowers or sea creatures adhering to something.

    That’s absolutely gorgeous.  Whod’a thunk that a drill bit could be art?  Just goes to show: you can find beauty very nearly anywhere.  Thanks, George!
