New piece; “Three”

maltese cross genevaFor the next few projects I’m scaling things down a notch, working with lighter materials and smaller sizes. “Three”  is the first of these “sketch” pieces and features a lucky accident with a Maltese cross Geneva. After scrapping several designs for the driver, I came across a ribbon feed from an old manual typewriter. The fit, even down to the width of the driving pin was miraculous. Sometimes, you just luck out. Perhaps this will make up for the millionth time I’ve lost a tiny part between the cracks in my floor :)
