This invention relates to an electromagnetically compensating weighing or force-measuring device with a working coil movable in an air gap of a fixed magnetic circuit and influenceable by the load to be measured. The invention relates, more particularly, to such a device having an indicator for indicating the position of the working coil and also having a control amplifier coupled to the indicator. The working coil is fed by an output signal from the control amplifier and is thereby brought to the zero position.
In electromagnetic force compensation of the type mentioned above, the working coil, subjected to the influence of the load to be measured, is held in a zero position by controlling the current flowing through the working coil, so that the current I flowing through the coil, by the formula
constitutes a measure of the electromagnetically produced force F and consequently the load to be measured. In the equation set out above: B is the magnetic flux density of the magnet system; I is the current in the coil; n is the number of turns on the working coil; and 2πr is the length of one turn of the working coil.
In the above set out formula, it is generally assumed that the magnetic flux density B is constant, so that the current I in the working coil is directly proportional to the electromagnetically generated force.
In general, the coil current I is converted into a measured voltage in a measuring resistance, and this measured voltage is then converted into digital form by means of an analog/digital converter, by comparing it with an internal reference voltage.
In such an arrangement, a permanent magnet is generally used as the principal component the magnetic circuit, while the reference voltage is generally provided by a reference diode, such as a Zener diode.
In such an arrangement, a number of difficulties and shortcomings arise. These are:
1. The temperature coefficient and the aging of the magnet falsify the measurement results;
2. The temperature coefficient and the aging of the measurement resistance also falsify the measurement result; the resultant systematic error having a particularly pronounced negative influence on measurement, because appropriately varying currents must be used for compensation of varying loads, whereby a varying amount of heat production and hence various temperature increases are produced; and
3. The temperature coefficient of the reference diode and hence the reference voltage as well as the aging of the reference diode, also falsify the measurement result, in addition, statistical voltage discontinuities in the reference diode cannot be avoided, and they likewise can influence measurement in an uncontrollable manner.
In addition to simple temperature compensation by additional temperature-dependent components, various possibilities are known for eliminating some or all of these possible errors in a systematic fashion.
One possibility is "quotient measurement". Two conventional systems are used simultaneously, the first system being subject to the influence of the load being measured and the second system being subject to the influence of a constant mass. In this manner, the second system replaces the reference diode.
In an embodiment according to German Federal Republic Pat. No. 1,194,167, the two conventional systems are disposed in two respective gaps of a magnetic circuit which includes the permanent magnet.
In another embodiment, disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,322,222, the two conventional systems are located in the same gap.
In a device disclosed in Swiss Pat. No. 521,575, the magnetic flux density B is regulated by the second conventional system.
Finally, according to another proposal, the two conventional systems are guided by concentric cylinders with the aid of air cushions.
By using the solution provided by the above-mentioned dual systems, the two above-mentioned difficulties (1) and (3) are overcome, because these influences act upon the two systems in similar fashion, and hence can be eliminated by quotient formation. The above-mentioned problems and difficulties (2), however, nevertheless remain because the measurement resistances for the two systems are separate. Moveover, a device using the dual systems, quotient formation approach has a very complex design, since all of the individual parts must be provided in duplicate. Furthermore, such a device is expensive. Finally, changes in the zero setting of the second conventional system may not be recognized or even detected, so that the dual systems in use may falsify the measurement result.
In a modification of the aforementioned quotient measurement technique, a digitalization is also carried out, wherein the carrier current, in other words the current I flowing through the working coil, is broken up into pulses in the first system. In an embodiment according to German Federal Republic Pat. No. 1,194,167, the pulse frequency is proportional to the applied mass, while in a modification disclosed in Swiss Pat. No. 529,999 the pulse length is proportional to the applied mass.
In this fashion, the above-mentioned difficulty, designated by the numeral (2), can be elimitated, but the entire device still has a very complex structure and requires a large number of components because the second system must still be present.
Moreover, changes in the zero point of the second system still cannot be detected or recognized, thus leading to possible falsifying of the measurement result. Finally, a complex electronic circuit subject to the influence of temperature and aging is required to keep the pulse constant. In particular, the shape of the edges changes markedly with minor changes in the components. If the pulse shape is not kept constant, accurate measurement is no longer possible.
Finally, German Federal Republic Auslageschrift (Published Patent application) No. 2,511,103 discloses a digitalization in the control circuit. However, this eliminates only the problems described above under numerals (1) and (2), while the difficulty described above under the numeral (3) remains. Once again, this can be overcome using the prior art techniques only by resorting to the dual systems and effecting a quotient measurement. Thus, disadvantages remain. Moreover, the characteristic curve and the hysteresis of the soft-magnetic material in the magnetic circuits used constitute critical parameters.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide an electromagnetically compensating weighing or force-measuring device wherein significant resolution and long-term stability is improved.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an electromagnetically compensating weighing or force-measuring device which is of simple mechanical construction and which overcomes the above-mentioned difficulties and shortcomings.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an accurate electromagnetically compensating weighing or force-measuring device which does not require dual systems.
It is an additional object of the present invention to provide an electromagnetically compensating device in which the effect of errors caused by the individual components are eliminated, especially the magnetic circuit, the measurement resistance and the reference diode components.
The objects set out above, as well as others which are to become clear from the text below, are achieved according to the present invention by virtue of the fact that an additional coil is connected in series electrically with the working coil, the magnetic field of this second coil being determined by a measuring sensor, the output signal of the measuring sensor being a measure of the load.
The advantages achieved by the invention reside particularly in that it is not the current flowing through the working coil which is determined, but rather a parameter proportional to the coil current which is determined by a measurement of the magnetic field. Hence, neither a measurement resistance nor a reference voltage is required, so that the problems set out above under numerals (2) and (3) cannot occur.
Known measurement techniques and conventional sensors, which are very precise and stable for a long periods of time, are available for measurement of the magnetic field, especially techniques and sensors which determine nuclear dipole resonance or spin resonance can be used. The precision of these conventional techniques and sensors resides in the fact that measurement and its evaluation can be referred to atomic constants. Measurement is influenced only by the atomic constants, a frequency standard (generally of a quartz crystal) for determination of the resonant frequency, as well as the geometric constants. All of these parameters are very stable, so that it can be assumed that they will not change in the course of time.
By this technique, a digital signal can be produced directly by determination of the resonant frequency; this is advantageous for further processing. Moreover, no analog/digital converter is required to practice the present invention. Finally, a device according to the present invention has a simple construction, because a complete second system need not be provided, as in the prior art devices which use quotient formation.
Advantageously, the measurement sensor for magnetic field measurement is disposed inside the coil, where it is well protected against external influences.
In order to detect changes in the magnetic field of the magnetic system, especially those due to temperature influences or aging, at least one additional measurement sensor is provided, advantageously in the air gap of the magnetic system, to determine the magnetic flux density B of the magnetic system, the output signal of the additional sensor, together with the output signal of the first measurement sensor, constituting a representation of the load to be measured. Hence, measurement of the magnetic flux density B and the coil current I are performed by a single measurement step, which simultaneously detects changes in the measurement result, produced by a variation in the magnetic field of the magnetic system.
If these two parameters are measured digitally, the product BxI can easily be calculated digitally, for example by using a microprocessor.
Advantageously, two measurement sensors are mounted in the air gap, so that the field pattern can be averaged.
The measurement sensors in the air gap can be mounted in a fixed position or can be mounted on the working coil.
Advantageously, the diameter of the additional coil used to determine the working coil current I is less than its length, resulting in a homogeneous magnetic field inside the additional coil.
The additional coil should be surrounded by a soft magnetic shield, in order to minimize influence from stray fields.
The magnetic field in the additional coil can be intensified by soft magnetic conductors. This material should have a linear magnetization curve and should not exhibit hysteresis.
The invention is described below, reference being made to the accompanying drawings which illustrate a preferred embodiment of an electromagnetically compensating apparatus according to the present invention.
FIG. 1 is a diagram of an electromagnetically compensated weighing or force-measuring device provided with a magnetic circuit according to the present invention, in which the mechanical components are indicated schematically.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the device of FIG. 1, the section being taken through the magnetic circuit and the working coil along section line A-B.
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view through the additional coil and the measurement sensor which are shown schematically in FIG. 5.
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a particularly advantageous coil, sensor and magnetic circuit having soft magnetic conductors and shielding which can be used in the device of FIG. 5.
FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of the electronic circuit and components of the device of FIG. 1, the mechanical and magnetic components being shown diagrammatically.
As shown in particular in FIGS. 1 and 5, a practical embodiment of an electromagnetically compensating weighing or force-measuring device according to the present invention includes a magnetic circuit 6 generally constituted by a permanent magnet 6b, a pole piece 6c, an air gap 6a and a yoke 6d. A working coil 5 is disposed in the air gap 6a of magnetic circuit 6.
As indicated schematically in FIGS. 1 and 5, the working coil 5 is directly connected by a member to a pan 8, on which the mass to be measured can be placed, the member being provided with conventional guides 7.
In addition, a position indicator 9 is mechanical connected to the member so that it moves with the working coil 5, the indicator indicating whether the working coil 5 is located in a predetermined equilibrium position in the air gap 6a of magnetic circuit 6, or has been deflected from this equilibrium under the influence of the force generated by a mass placed upon the pan 8.
When the working coil 5 is deflected downward in the air gap 6a by this force, as shown in the drawings, the position indicator 9 indicates this deflection, i.e. it generates a signal which changes the current supplied to the working coil 5, via a control amplifier 10, until the equilibrium position is reached once more. As described above, the electromagnetic force thus produced is proportional to the weight of the mass placed on the pan 8, so that the current required to reach the equilibrium position constitutes a measure of the weight to be measured.
As shown in FIG. 5, an additional coil 1 is connected electrically in series with the working coil 5 so that the magnetic field produced by the additional coil 1 is proportional to the current flowing through the working coil 5.
Two possible designs of the additional coil 1 with associated components are shown in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4. In the simplest case, the additional coil 1 can consist of a cylindrical hollow body 13, provided with a conventional winding 2. The diameter of the additional coil 1 is consequently much less than its length.
A measurement sensor 3 is located in the central portion of the interior of the cylindrical hollow body 13, the sensor 3 being capable of determining the strength of the magnetic field generated by the additional coil 1, in other words, the magnetic flux density produced by the coil 1.
The flux density thus measured is proportional to the current flowing through the working coil 5, so that the weight of the mass placed upon the pan 8 can be calculated from the measured value for the flux density in the additional coil 1 by using the formula set out above.
In the embodiment according to FIG. 4, the coil 1 is provided with a soft magnetic shield 17 to protect it against stray fields as well as soft iron magnetic flux conductors 11 to intensify the magnetic field of the coil 1. The material for these magnetic conductors and/or the magnetic shielding must have a linear magnetization curve and must not exhibit hysteresis.
With a constant value for the magnetic flux density B in magnetic circuit 6, the measured magnetic field of the additional coil 1 can be used to determine the electromagnetic force by resorting to the formula given above.
In order to allow for the temperature coefficients, as well as any aging phenomena which may be present in the components of rhe magnetic circuit 6, two additional measurement sensors 4 and 4a are disposed in the air gap 6a of the magnet system, the sensors 4 and 4a as shown in FIG. 2, being located on mutually opposite points on the circular magnetic circuit 6.
The magnetic flux density B of the magnetic circuit 6 is measured with the aid of the sensors 4 and 4a.
The values determined by the two measurement sensors 4 and 4a for the magnetic flux density of magnetic circuit 6 are averaged and processed further in a manner more fully described hereinbelow.
The measurement sensors 3, 4, and 4a can operate for example either according to the principle of magnetic nuclear dipole resonance or the principle of spin resonance. The design and function of such measurement sensors are well known and are described, for example, in the article "An Rb Magnetometer for a Wide Field Range and High Sensitivity" in PTB--Mitteilungen 4/74 pages 241 ff, and in a book by Kohlrausch, "Praktische Physik" (Practical Physics), Volume 2, 1968, page 274 under the heading "Nuclear Resonance".
FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of the electronic portion of the device, with the mechanical and magnetic circuit components being shown diagrammatically. The output signal from the sensors 4 and/or 4a, which constitutes a measurement of the magnetic flux density B of the magnetic circuit 6, is converted into a digital signal by a resonance oscillator 20 and a frequency counter 22. In the case when only a single sensor 4 or 4a is used, its output can be fed directly to the oscillator 20. In the case outputs from both of the sensors 4 and 4a are used, the outputs are first fed to an averaging circuit 18, which averages the two signals, the average then being fed to the oscillator 20.
The output signal from the additional coil 1, which is proportional to the coil current I of the working coil 5, is likewise converted into a digital signal by a resonance oscillator 21 and a frequency counter 23. The two frequency counters share a common time base, provided by the output of a quartz oscillator 19. The two electrical signals from the frequency counters are combined in an arithmetic multiplier 24, which generates signal output values proportional to the electromagnetic force in accordance with the equation F=const�B�I.
The output signal from the multiplier 24 is processed further, in the usual manner, in a conventional processor 25 wherein, for example, the output signal from the multiplier 25 is tared, averaged, and the like so that the measurement result can finally be displayed on a readout display 26.
It is to be understood that the foregoing description and accompanying drawings relates to embodiments set out by way of illustation, not by way of limitation. Numerous other embodiments and variants are possible with the spirit and scope of the invention its scope being defined by the appended claims.

The Business of…Celebrity Name Brands
It's not enough to be a star athlete or celebrated actor anymore, staying power means building yourself into a brand. Here are the most enterprising in celebrity name brand.
November 22, 2011 4:42 by p.deleon
Donald Trump
According to Predictiv, a brand valuation company, which Donald Trump quotes in his latest book, the real estate mogul's brand value is worth $3 billion. Forbes, however, puts his brand value at a mere $200 million—still not half bad for the reality TV star.
As for his products, where do we begin? Apart from his famous hair sweep, Trump has a stake in almost everything. He gives licenses for property developers to use the 'Trump' brand for their projects, he also owns several real estate under the Trump Organization, such as the Trump Tower. He also has a Reality TV show, several books and a perfume he created himself called 'No Joke'.
In total, Trump estimates his net worth at $7 billion, according to his forthcoming book Time to Get Tough'.

Stupidity, the 'mark of excellence' of our Govt. Eli Yishai and his acolytes have shown us what a bunch of incompetent bureaucrats are capable of doing to our country. When finished (if we let them),Israel's map will probably be 3/4 or 1/2 the size of 1948. I suppose that Israelis get their adrenaline running high only when seduced by this once-in-a-lifetime deal at the Azrieli complex. As far as politics?

Almost two years after they bought a Ford Escape, Gerald and Susan Barth filed a lawsuit against the Ford Motor Company in June 2011, citing Wisconsin's lemon law.
The Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the couple two weeks ago after nearly three years of litigation, awarding them almost $155,000 in damages and legal expenses, according to a decision filed with the court of appeals on June 4.
The couple was represented by Robert Dowling, an attorney at the Waukesha law firm Jastroch & LaBarge, which has a strong history with lemon law cases.
"(The firm) has been successful in the overwhelming majority of cases that have gone to suit," Dowling said. And, he added, that doesn't include all the cases settled out of court.
The lawsuit specifically mentioned a recurring transmission problem that the Lochen Ford dealership — where the Barth's bought the Esccape — failed to repair in a timely manner.
According to the court's decision, the Barths returned to the dealership on four separate occasions, the first visit coming only two days after purchasing the car, to complain about a transmission problem.
Ford repaired the vehicle multiple times, and rebuilt the transmission, but the problem persisted.
The Barths believed that under state law this meant their car was a "lemon" and filed their suit.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation website, a "lemon" is a new vehicle, no more than one year old and still under warranty, that has a serious defect the dealer can't fix, or one or many defects that prevent the car from working for a total of 30 consecutive or non-consecutive days.
In order to receive relief under Wisconsin's lemon law, a consumer must give a car manufacturer a reasonable attempt to repair a vehicle with a defect by notifying the dealer of the problem and making the vehicle "available for repair."
Ford contended that the Barths didn't adequately make their vehicle available for repair by simply mentioning the problem during their first visit.
Dowling said the Barths' case was unique because Ford tried to argue that making a vehicle "available for repair" should require the car's owner to explicitly demand an inspection or test drive, which is not the legal standard in current case law.
"This is the first time I've ever seen that happen," he said.

The driver who backed over and killed a 14-month-old girl in Brooklyn Center on Monday has been identified as her father.
Xeng Lor, 31, struck his daughter as he backed up an SUV in the family's driveway, thinking that she and her two brothers, ages 4 and 5, had gotten out of the vehicle's way.
Lor's sister Mai Lor, 30, said Tuesday that all three children were supposed to be inside the house. "Within a glance, everything went wrong," she said.
Another sibling, an 8-year-old girl, was with the children's grandmother at the time, Mai Lor said.
Police responded to a 911 call Monday afternoon at the home on the 5400 block of Colfax Avenue N. The girl was dead when police arrived, said Brooklyn Center police Cmdr. Brian Peters.
In a news release Tuesday, police said they believe the incident was an accident. They said it happened as Xeng Lor was moving the vehicle from the garage area where he was grilling.
Mai Lor said her brother and his wife were out preparing for their daughter's funeral Tuesday. They were waiting for the medical examination to be completed, she said, so they could see her body and set a funeral date.
Police said the girl's name will be released when the medical examination is complete.
Centralized national data on these types of incidents, commonly known as backovers, have only recently become available. Because most backovers happen in driveways and parking lots, they typically aren't included in traffic crash data.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's nontraffic crash database, which launched in 2009, an estimated 267 people are killed and 15,000 injured nationwide in backovers each year. Most are young children and elderly people.
From 2008 to 2011, an estimated 379 children under age 14 were killed by backing vehicles, according to the NHTSA.
The drivers involved in these incidents are often neighbors or relatives.

- Apr 28, 2016 at 9:00AM
As Mercer Island residents, we are dismayed by the "Protect our Parks" petition. We support our parks and the diverse activities our Island provides. Our vision of the Island is one of diversity.

The petition pursues a course to limit this community vision and to stifle the diverse activity our parks provide. It lacks the belief that we will defend our Island's rich natural parks.

Leana de Bruin believes the Magic's recent run of poor form can kick them into gear to come home strong.
The Waikato-Bay of Plenty side's honeymoon period is well over. After leading the pack, they are now stumbling towards the playoffs, having blown healthy leads in their last three matches and losing the past two.
But the experienced de Bruin has been in this situation before, when games pretty much become must-win. Just think the 2012 campaign when the Magic lost their first four, before going unbeaten after that to take the title.
"Obviously the last few weeks hasn't been ideal, but at the end of the day I think sometimes when you've got your back against the wall it's a good place because you've got no choice of just going out there and doing the job as well as you can," the 36-year-old said.
"Sometimes when you don't have an option, the only way is to look forward."
The classy defender said there had been good discussion within the team about how to fix their problems, heading into their match against the Mainland Tactix in Mt Maunganui on Monday, but verified they haven't been given a barrelling by coach Julie Fitzgerald.
"Everybody's taking individual responsibility, so I don't actually think harsh words is going to fix what we're doing," de Bruin said. "We're all disappointed. It's not as if we go out there and you go 'Oh let's lose after being 10 up'."
The key was to go back to focusing on moment-by-moment and concentrating on themselves, each person on their own job, as well as finding the hunger that seems to have disappeared.
"You can't plan for that, you've just got to bring it on the day, and all seven players need to do it at the same time."
"When we've been up I think we do kind of relax a little bit and lose that fight, and we see the concentration drop as well, and we just do silly little mistakes like dropping balls or passing silly passes.
"So it's keeping that focus no matter where we are.
"And I suppose we all feel like we're not playing with that same intensity that we started the season off with."
De Bruin acknowledged that with their early high-flying status, other teams had lifted their game against the Magic, and she didn't put the fall in performances down to physical fatigue.
She also revealed that at training this week the Magic have come up with some set plays to give them more discipline. "Hopefully that will work for us. It's not so much changing a whole lot of stuff, because we can't fix those problems all in one day, but I suppose just having a bit more structure when say we've got a timeout or at the start of a quarter.
"We're trying to focus a little bit more and everybody knows what we're doing instead of people just looking at each other and going 'You go' or 'I go'."

BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- DryWired™ announced today that it is expanding its customized surface modification product portfolio to include the DryWired™ Nebula and the Nebula Junior. These revolutionary patent- pending desktop nanocoating systems are low cost, compact, and ideal for electronic retailers looking to offer invisible water repellent nanocoatings directly to their customers. The Nebula systems are a perfect solution for consumer-facing mobile phone retailers, repair/service centers, mobile phone accessory providers and other small businesses due to their small footprint and performance reliability.

The Nebula systems can be used to nanocoat mobile phones, iPads and other tablets, gaming consoles, headsets, headphones and ear buds, hearing aids, cameras, electronic assemblies, and other high value items.
The DryWired™ Nebula features a two-tiered configuration in the chamber, which can accommodate a maximum of 28 smartphones per cycle. The more compact, DryWired™ Nebula Junior also features two configurable tiers and can accommodate up to 14 mobile devices per coating cycle.

The Nebula systems use disposable gas cartridges that are non-hazardous, non-toxic, and can be shipped worldwide without restrictions. The award-winning Nebula systems are designed and manufactured in California, U.S.A. and are CE-marked, ISO-certified and UL-listed.
"We are thrilled to introduce the DryWired™ Nebula and Nebula Junior," said DryWired™ VP of Business Development Alex Nesic. "We are confident that these two compact nanocoating systems will provide a phenomenal value addition to a variety of retailers in the electronics sector by increasing the availability and driving down the cost of this protective service."

Posted 2/28/2013 at 2:57 PM by Lauren
I bought this ornament for both sets of grandparents. I received both, very well packaged. It was bigger than I had expected, which wasn't a bad thing. The material was heavy duty and quality. We had the grand-kids names and the grandparents nicknames for the personalization. I even got a call the day after I ordered just to confirm I hadn't misspelled the name, which I thought was first class customer service! Both sets of grandparents loved their gift. I have ordered ornaments from OrnamentShop for the last 3 years and always been impressed. I will continue to order my Christmas ornaments from them in the future!
Sending the same ornament to different places? If you order more than one of an item and want them shipped to different addresses, please order them individually. We will ask you for the individual shipping addresses later in the ordering process.
Santa's Truck 2 Children
Personalized Christmas Table Top Decoration
Santa and Mrs. Claus can represent Grandpa and Grandma with their two little elves in the back of the pickup truck ready to deliver presents. The old fashion truck is rolling down the dirt road delivering holiday cheer to friends and neighbors! This personalized truck tabletop has an easel on the back allowing for it to stand up on flat surfaces. There is space on the hats to write two children's names. This will look great on a mantle above the fireplace, or on a side table next to a reading chair.

About this design:
I started out making the earrings first, then thought I should make a set, so started the pendant.The pendant looked like something was missing so I added the wire wrapped around, that helped but still too plain.I had a necklace I had made along time ago( just did'nt sell) so I took the amber and tigers eye form that and added it to the pendant and the necklace.What do you think? Should I add some to the earrings, or would that be too much????? O.o
Components:18,28 and 24 gauge copper wire.Tigers eye and Butterscotch Amber. ( was told that was the name of this amber??)I made the toggle casp(18 gauge)
Read the comments (or add your own)
The 3rd image is when I first started out.
Love the amber and tiger's eye together! I think you did a great job! If it were me, I'd add a few beads to the earrings..but just a few..
Love it. I wouldn't change a thing.
No, no, no…it is just right the way it is.
Perfect finished product!!!!!
Love the butterscotch amber (or whatever it's called). Such a happy color to this sunny necklace and great wire work, JC!!
Don't change a thing. I like all the pieces,and the earrings are lovely. I think the wirework in them does all the talking,and the little beads are just enough. If I had created them,I'd want to add extra beads too,but I'm always doing that.
Stellar wire work!
JC I think this is wonderful just the way it is! I love the cluster of beads a little off center, and the earrings are WOW.
It's funny, I have been drawing out some designs with elongated curls…they look something like yours! Haven't made any yet though. You do inspire me!
Gorgeous as is, I would change a thing! Love the bright warm yellow with the copper wire!
Thank you so much ladies.I will leave the earrings.I tend to add to much, not knowing when enough is enough.
Cindy, "great minds think alike"lol I hope you do make yours, I'm looking forward to seeing your design. Your work inspires me as well.
I want to learn how to patina the copper.have any of you talented ladies ever worked with liver of sulfor???( oh where do you buy it?)
I agree with Gramnan; they are comfortably light weight the way they are. Not too many people can take weight on their ears. Necklace is PERFECT
I'll be back on with jewelry later; been having some bad news come our way lately
Thank you Sydney, sorry to hear about your bad news.Sending prayers and happy thoughts to you.
As has been said – perfectly beautiful – love the set as is! I wouldn't change it; the necklace and the earrings would be competing with each other if you add more to the earrings. Love the color, too.
What a great color. And the design is wonderful.
Wonderful design, colors and wirework…its fab "as-is"!
Love it…and leave it be!
Stunning use of color. Great design! Into my favs!
This piece is fabulous! I adore butter amber and you've used it beautifully! Your wire work is impeccable as well. The earrings are absolutely stunning, however if it were me I'd add a piece or two of the butter amber to them. (Did I mention how much I love butter amber? Lol!) Wonderful set!
Thank you for all the uplifting and kind words,coming from all you talented ladies,it means alot to me.Been alittle down lately. Slowly coming back up!!! ya!!!
A bit late to comment on this one — but have to, they are so beautiful and well made, not to mention inspiring… LOVE!! I've stained copper with a black patina which is not Liver of Sulphur. It doesn't smell at all, but does contain a mixture of nasty acids (forgotten which, and the bottle isn't where I am right now), and a sulphur compound: it stains any metal quite instantly. I got it at a local shop, so it won't help you much, but at least you know there are alternatives (boiled eggs in a plastic bag could be another, I've read..).
Had a look at the bottle, it apparently is some stuff used for tiffany work.

The suspect in a double murder in Granite Falls earlier this month has been taken into custody. Andrew Dikken was reportedly arrested Tuesday afternoon at the Renville County Sheriff's Office in Olivia. Dikken was being sought in the shooting deaths of his former girlfriend, 26-year-old Kara Monson of Granite Falls and her 28-year-old boyfriend, Chris Panitzke of Redwood Falls. Dikken had been missing since the two were shot September 2nd at Monson's home. Authorities say that Dikken's family members had been cooperating with authorities and brought him to the sheriff's office Tuesday. He has since been taken to the Yellow Medicine County Jail in Granite Falls, pending a first court date. Granite Falls police are continuing their investigation into the deaths.

Where The Buoys Are
Spring is in the air and temperatures are on the rise, which means it's time for beach, booze, and bikinis. Last year, the 305 saw its first Floatopia, an epic party on inner tubes that overtook South Pointe Park (1 Washington Ave., Miami Beach) with Solo cups, camaraderie, and dozens of inflatable devices. And this weekend, the float-fest is back with a water-bound vengeance. The buoyant bash is hitting South Beach again (on 4/20, no less), and it's a must-do for anyone into floaties, new friends, and fun times. All that's required for an unforgettable afternoon are some rope (so you don't float away, duh), a floating device of choice, a few low-key libations, and plenty of sunscreen. But remember — this is our beach, so keep it clean and try not to break too many laws, mkay? No need to ruin it for next year.
