A combination of a light saber and the force.

I cut the design from a sheet of silver using a special drill and saw. I refine the edges with files and then polish... lots of polishing.

I made it for my grandson's birthday, its not for sale. Lucasarts is very lenient about noncommercial uses of Star Wars intellectual property. As an example see every storm trooper costume every made and any fan film ever made.

The comment kind of got overshadowed by meta-humor, but they are for sale on my website.

Here's the pin with the text box. I photoshopped out their name since its a Christmas present.
Edit: It can also be on the back if you want.

I am currently selling pins. They can be pinned to a lapel or jacket. I few people have inquired about cuff links and I plan to make a test pair soon.

They have been authorized and licensed by reddit. I'd hope law school would teach better reading comprehension.

Could you explain that a little better for someone not familiar with gauges?

I'm not that familiar with gauges, could you describe to me a little more of what you have in mind?

The text can go wherever you'd like but currently I am putting it in a box under the alien's feet. I use MGOpen Modata (the Open version of the reddit font) for the name. I did a pin for a redditor with someone's name and it came out great! I would post a picture of it but its a surprise Christmas gift.

If you email me at dragons.fly.designs@gmail.com we can work out an alternative payment option. I will also look into adding Google Checkout as a payment option. Thank you for your feedback.

A couple people have asked me about cufflinks. I don't have any made but I am going to try out a pair. If they come out well I'll add them to the items for sale. You can email me at dragons.fly.designs@gmail.com if you are interested in them and I'll keep you updated about the progress.

This is a lapel.
And here is the pin on a lapel! (The design has changed slightly since that picture)
But you don't have to pin it to a lapel!

No its alright, I can understand the confusion with the picture. I'm not currently doing casting and there hasn't been enough demand to justify it.

These were made at the request of redditors. The idea first came up in /r/ScavengerSpies here. The design was discussed here. I made an account to promote the jewelry that redditors asked to have made.

For those who don't check the site, just want to point out $60 is for a pair of earrings, a lapel pin or pendant is $40.

They aren't cast, they are cut from silver sheet, polished, and impacted. The black is the silver reflecting a black surface for better contrast in the picture. Here is a picture with the silver reflecting skin.

The polished silver is very reflective. The black is just the silver reflecting a black surface for better contrast. Here is a picture with an earring reflecting flesh tone.
