i use a lot of antique coins/notes, pretty much everything is handmade, even if it's something i have to buy/have made coz i dont have space for welding equipment!

i wish i was that talented mate! nah, the coils are covered in old japanese notes, the thumb screw (check new pic) is made from a 1949 hong kong coin with the king georges head on the other side.

Intricate stuff, do they work by electric, or compressed air?..sorry if this is a stupid question, I've never seen one in "action" before..
I'm glad you explained what they are as I wouldn't of had a clue what they were other wise..gotta say they look a wee bit scary too me,even more so if they had nedles attatched I should imagine!
