I've always wanted to somehow incorporate these finds into jewelry. Especially ones that are already smooth. (I won't bother going into my disastrous experience with a rock tumbler).
So I was sniffing around the 'net and found some info on drilling through rock and glass. My favorite, simple explanation was on Seaglass Dreams. He not only sells sea glass but gives a straight-forward, easy to understand explanation of how to do it.
I bought a diamond drill bit and already have a Dremel. Finding some beach glass is next (while I'd love to try the quartz, it's a harder substance than glass). Then, working up the courage to run an electrical tool partially underwater. ;-)
Unless things go terribly wrong, I'll be posting a follow up to this soon. Wish me luck...
And, completely unrelated but just because I'm a big fan of Incubus...check out their new video. Hehehehe. Love it.
