The Drillium Collection by Jeffrey Rumbold

Remember Stefan, and how I told him I'd make it up to him? He sent me this derailleur clamp and, over a period of about two weeks I turned it into this piece of kinetic art. I then posted it back to him in Switzerland. He gave it to his wife as a gift - had her open the package at dinner the day it arrived. According to Stefan, she was amazed and loved it. It was added to her '78 DeRosa. I charged nothing - as I've done for Carl on a number of parts. They provided the raw materials, I did my work for free to make up for the paint flub in Stefan's case, and just for the hell of it in Carl's case. Actually, I feel I owe Carl as he's the one who, since the beginning, has encouraged me to try new things with my Drillium and also suggested selling some of my work on Ebay, too. Equitable exchanges in both cases, in my opinion. Plus, I got more valuable Dremel time - practice makes perfect, after all!
