I've spent the Thanksgiving weekend making like a crazy person. I get into this mode where I just run around my house getting all kinds of small things done. I've put up shelves, replanted every goddamn plant in my house, made a sunglasses holder of an old utility tester etc etc etc.

The utility tester sunglasses holder. 

3D printed ledge

It was just this vintage piece of electronics that I printed a ledge for so I could put my sunglasses on it. BTW did I ever show you the comb coat hanger I made like a year ago? I think I might have forgotten about it. It's the yellow weird-looking thing in the first photo. Just a few layers of laser cut plywood that I painted yellow. I call it welcomb, because life is more fun with silly names for stuff.

But that's not what I was going to show you! It's this necklace that I've been prototyping. I think I must have 3D printed about a dozen different versions of it now. 

Discarded versions of the necklace

It's a power plug! The idea is that you open and close the necklace with the plug. I want the final version to be cast metal with a magnet that keeps it together, but just been trying to find the right look/size for it. It's taken a while but now I'm finally at a place I like. The final version might be a bit smaller, but other than that I'm pretty happy with it!

I'm working on getting the necklace manufactured into merchandise. AND A BUNCH OF OTHER STUFF TOO! So so so excited about it. LMK if there's any merch you'd like to see. Or if you have feedback on the necklace!

Love the necklace. You should have used some of the failed necklaces as a giveaway to your patrons

The power plug necklaces are super-cool. I really like the final form. Maybe that could be the secret sign of members of The Shitty Robot Nation! I love the comb! I totally need something like that. I like the sunglasses rack, but if that were mine, I'd always be wondering if I could resurrect the device it was attached to and it would drive me crazy. I'm irrationally sentimental about making old/slightly broken things work again.

The necklace is awesome! Please don't make it smaller, chunky jewellery is the best

My favourite is the comb hanger

I'm weird but I kind of like the idea of a longer necklace hat you can wear with the plug open too! I think that would be pretty neat. And I would definitely purchase a comb coat rack too!

Will the necklace work in the UK or will I need an adapter? 😂

That necklace is awesooome, and so are your other projects :)

I would buy the necklace in a heartbeat and I don’t even wear jewelry! The sunglass holder would get used a lot though

I think that all you need is a neck. A UK neck will probably do fine 😃
