    Quoted from toyotaboy:

    rommy: If you just order off shapeways, you'll end up with my finger size. If you give me a ring size, I can make alternate models for purchase

    Thought about possibly doing these, I could take what I already have an add a eyelet and get some hooks. Would make it easier since it would be one size.

    Please do offer this as a necklace with an eyelet. I have been shopping for weeks for some sort of pinball themed jewelry gift with no success. I am a surefire order if you make a necklace.

    Quoted from toyotaboy:

    Ok, so this is what I came up with for a pendant. Since silver isn't a cheap material, I did hollow out the bottom. Even making it only an inch long, and minimizing detail because of it's small size, it's still coming out to $90 (that's polished). I also made an .080" hole in the front and back so a chain can be fed through it (it's also towards the top so it'll tend to be bottom heavy and not spin on the chain)
    If anyone is interested, or if you have feedback how I should change it, let me know. Also if someone wants a plastic version so they can see how it looks in person let me know (it would probably only be like $15-$20)

    Nice work. I am thinking about ordering in silver as a gift. I have a couple of ideas. First a little button like extrusion for a plunger on the front would be cool. I agree that you dont want it to be top heavy and spin but it seems like maybe putting the hole through the back box would insure that it does not flip over and that it hangs more naturally. What do you think?

    Hi OP, any progress on the new hole location? I am excited to see how it turns out!
