A little something for the significant other.

I just made up some earrings out of sterling silver and military-surplus vacuum tubes. Getting the bases trimmed down without shattering them was quite difficult, but I think they turned out rather well (aside from my color-inaccurate photography, anyway. :P )

It actually makes me think more of steampunk style than audio. A shame, I know.

I, regrettably, do not have a significant other - I made them to sell at sci-fi conventions.

I'm glad people like them - I think I'll be making quite a few more.

Those are very cool! I'll bet you could sell quite a few of them!

Any chance you could possibly include hearing aid batteries to light the filaments? Talk about an eargasm.

Awesome! That would be great for someone into audio, antiques, or geeky stuff!

They'd get drained REALLY fast. Also, I don't think the filaments in these light up very much, if at all.

Would be pretty nifty, though!
