We visited Broadway in the Cotswolds and I spotted these gewgaws made from shotgun cartridge tops.
Cufflinks, keyrings and decorations to leather belts.
I got a huge bag of spent cartridges from my neighbour and tame builder, Colin, who is a keen clay pigeon shooter, making some into resin coasters - but that was before I developed the allergy to resin. As a result, I have a couple of hundred of the things, which are impossible to dispose of sensibly.
I may give the cufflinks a try, but the shop owner volunteered to take the excess off my hands, as the cufflinks and belts are made on-site. I'll swap them for a set of their cufflinks for me (not that I wear shirts that require cufflinks anymore) and a keyring for Hay.
