I will be using this thread as the sales thread and the original bead thread found here can be used for discussions. I hope this will have keep things organized. I suggest if you haven't already, please review the original thread for additional details. I'll include a brief summary below.
Wood Carvings
All wood carvings will be rough sanded. The face will be fine sanded. Linseed Oil will be added (unless noted) to enhance/deepen/darken color.
Acrylic Carvings
Acrylics with be rough sanded. The face will be fine sanded to 12000 grit leaving a high gloss (glass like) finish.
Metal Carvings
All metals (brass, copper, bronze) are made to order. I have two sizes for metal. They are 3/4 inch stock and 5/8 inch. The 3/4 is better suited for knives and the 5/8 for flashlights. I currently have both sizes available to make copper. I think brass and bronze are available in 3/4 only at the moment. Also, I'm willing to give aluminum another shot, but only in 5/8 size. There is a Ti in 5/8 floating around. This was already sold and extremely difficult to make. There will be no other Ti versions. I suppose money talks, but it wouldn't be worth it!
For reference purposes, generally Villain beads in acrylic and wood start with a base 3/4 inch stock.
3/4 Villain : $90.
5/8 Villain : $70.
Here are size pics.
These prices include shipping CONUS. See below for International orders.
The entire piece will be high polished and the face with be mirror polished. Be aware that these are soft metals so they can scratch easily. Also, being a base copper metal, they will patina quickly. They are totally awesome though!

Prices will be listed below relative to the piece. There is some flexibility dependent on material cost and difficulty in production.
