This guy hand-forged his own wedding ring. OUT OF A METEORITE.
That’s it. Game over. You will never have a wedding ring cooler than that of redditor laporkenstein. Not only did he fashion the band himself, in the formidable fires of… well… his garage — he forged the damn thing out of a chunk of meteorite. (A Gibeon meteorite, to be exact.) Laporkenstein… you, sir, are a DIY luminary.
All told, laporkenstein says it took him about four days to craft the ring, using “the same techniques employed to make samurai swords” (by which, we assume, he means the layered metalworking techniques similar to those used in the production of Damascus steel). We’ve picked out a few examples from his series of over 40 pictures documenting the forging process, but you’ll definitely want to check out the entire album over on imgur.

That is bad assed.
I give this 10 awesomes.
Well then.
Clearly if we let Elves marry other Elves, then Elves will start marrying faeries and dwarfs and even humans.

{Tonight is the opening gala for my alma mater’s grad show. I’m going to be showing my support to some friends who are graduating from the Environmental Design program. The great thing about an art school’s grad show is that the whole campus is going to feel like an art museum. All the classrooms become little galleries, and you really get immersed into the creativity and you get a good impression of how much time and hard work is put into each project. If you’re in the area, come check it out! It’s free, and it’s open all weekend. Also, if you hang out by the jewelry displays, the students there even sell their work!}

{While watching this Sunday’s The Good Wife, this commercial came on. I was so caught up in the beauty and tone of it, I decided to make a mental note to share this on the blog. So here it is, before I forget.}
*On a separate note, it’s my first week at my new job, and I must confess to being a little overwhelmed but excited by all of the changes. I promise to resume my regular posting as soon as I find my settle into my new routine. Thanks for understanding!
