 For the Kinetic Project I once again used the etching method to create the "charms" for the piece. I believe it was somewhat successful, however I was struggling to clean these as much as I wanted due to a shallow engraving, probably due to the acid bath being used throughout the semester. I am also struggling to drill holes in the pieces without having someone to pierce the metal before drilling. I attempted to use a regular screw and hammer to create a recess to drill in, but the screw was too lightweight of a material to achieve that. 

I plan to attempt to attach the initial jump-ring with epoxy and and then proceed as usual.
