    Default Does anybody do anything fun or crafty with empty casings?

    Just wondering.

    Obviously, reloading is the most practical thing to do with empty casings.

    I typed empty casings crafts into Google and clicked on images. 95% of what I saw was not impressive.

    I did like the cufflinks (but I literally never wear cufflinks) and I've seen jewelry made at the gun shows that was actually very cool.

    Has anybody seen or done anything else that actually looked cool and not so trashy?

    I got a chess set for my birthday a few years back, looks very similar to this:

    Instead of black and white, the set is brass and steel casings.

    Crafty? I take empty casings and toss them around schools and sit back and watch the excitement.
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    I use empty 38/357 casings installed on end of my arrows for a blunt force shot on small game 1

    I'm not worried, that's why I collect spent brass from other people at Group shoots.
