Scott NC Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I guess I would tack a ball bearing in that upper hole for an eye and make a giant jawed dinosaur of some sort out of it. It's hard to discern what tools are ok to destroy for a sculpture and which should be preserved. I stay away from using them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
