The new order has arrived!

My latest jewelry order has finally arrived, so here are some actual photos of real things, instead of just renders.

The remaining pieces that haven't yet sold can be purchased at improbablecog.etsy.com

New designs in the works. Yes, I am insane. Why do you ask?

I've had my head buried in the computer for weeks now designing new pieces. Here's a couple of items that are almost ready for production.

Carapace Ring. I've ordered a few of these in US 6 size, but I'm still awaiting verification.

Eggsac Pendant. Haven't ordered one of these yet, but it's nearly ready to go. I am beginning to really hate 3D splines, they eat my life.

In the works are: buckles, cufflinks, more earrings, plugs for larger gauges, and more!

All this is brought to you by DubFX on repeat, and excessive amounts of Travelers 'crack' Masala Chai.

Improbablecog Etsy Store is Live!

The improbablecog Etsy store is now live, and accepting orders for several items!

Pieces currently available are:

The updated version 2 Spine Earring

Tentacle Creature Plugs

Warning Plugs

These three items are on order and actual photos will be coming soon!

First 3D print samples

I received these in the mail at the end of September, but the relocation to Seattle delayed me from posting good photos of the results.

Here are the first samples of the Spine earring model, which you may recognize from below. There is a definite texture imposed by the manufacturing process, but I think it adds to the appearance rather than detracting from it.

3D Printed Jewelry

Since I'm currently without a proper lab, in the works are a number of pieces to be printed in stainless steel by Shapeways. The first round of test pieces are on order, so I'll soon find out how well this actually works.

In the meantime, here are computer renderings of the earrings I'm awaiting.

Alien Tentacle Plugs

This pair of 5/8" plugs is my first larger, more complex plug design. They are made of silver and brass, and use short lengths of fluorescent fiber optic wire for the green eyes, which glow when exposed to bright light.

Greater Camera Beast

This was completed the very last minute of the absolute last day of the final, final week of classes, but here it is!










































Built nearly entirely out of copper, this piece is more sculptural than jewelry. In the beast's head is an infrared, black and white video camera that, when connected to video goggles or a television screen, allows a human to see in the dark like a creature of the night.
