Yes, I made the key chain too. I cut the top corners off so that the top cover fit down over.

I never said I didn't like it I do and best part I was trying to decide if I wanted to wrap the top of mine or do what midlife did and keep the origonal lid. Still not sure but I do like both ways.

Very nice work, Arlan. I like the bits of blue here and there. Really compliments the paint.

I didn't notice that. I think it's a cool accent too.

The powder particles themselves are staticly charged, so they do the stickin.
