This is a really neat silver coin ring project I've gotten to work on, it's going to be a gift for a young nephew (4-5). Way cool uncle @synodicles wanted a nice package of silver rings that would be a store of value and be something he could have and hold that would be fun and functional. So we came up with this graduating set of rings that he can transition thru as he gets older, that will also come with/on a braided leather necklace so if he lies one that doesn't fit yet can always wear it (or multiple) around his neck. It will also be 5 coin rings, I just have the large size 1 oz ring to make still. So it will go from the two 90% silver quarter dollar ATB (Hawai'i Volcanoes NP near where the rings are made and Cali Yosemite NP cuz he lives in Cali), then the 1899 Barber half dollar, then the .999 fine silver 1/2 oz Incuse Indian. Still working on the final ring, I've got one I've started, a Double Dragon 1 oz coin, but I'm thinking it might be a little too large (very wide band) for the ring size I'm shooting for now that I've got it partly formed, so I might find something that works better for the size, but it's gotta be super cool. Anyways, like I said it's a super fun project to get to work on, so thanks again Synodicles!

Grok is telling me it can not and has never had the capability to create images. I'm skeptical that we'll ever get a "maximally truth seeking" AI

Circulating stoke levels very high rn Commissioned @TruthHawaii369 to make a unique gift for my nephew's birthday; I wanted something he'd never get for himself, will appreciate in value over time and can become an annual tradition Highly recommend Growing Aloha's services
OK, this is a reboot of a silver coin to ring commission project I started a little over a week ago that went awry before completion, and I had made an exception to the rule to have 2 of the same coin (this one birth year specific for a b-day present from a cool uncle - H/T @synodicles ) just in case this happens. So it took me a while to get a couple more '99 ASEs to complete this hopefully just in time to get it to its destination on time. Here's the starter coin and it hole punched -

Nicotine - What "they" don't want us to know; in small doses (not via smoking tobacco ofc) it's a powerful anti-inflammatory w/therapeutic potential for asthmatics. Corticosteroids are ok to give to your child, but not half a 2mg piece of gum 🤨

Brentwood looking safer for now, only one bird appears to be dropping water down towards mouth of Mandeville Caynon Rd. Other 3-4 birds up in the air are dropping water up in the hills a mile east or so of Topanga Oaks Appear to be making drops where helicopter is red in image

While California is known for its fires and poor air quality (what's going on near San Francisco?!), remember it could always be worse; you could live in Central Africa, India or China where it's just a typical day
