I've always wondered why we don't make jewelry out of broken parts? Why not? Many times they are far more expensive than gold.

Sold out by STV/OMC racing rig and parts, listed them on a paper sack with prices that I paid and got for them. Mistake came went my beautiful wife found the bag. Her ownly comment was,
" Wow, I could have had a 2 carat diamond!"
Thank God that she is a great friend and wife.

Tom Hindley from Washingston State used to produce some really good looking stuff. From props, PRO hydros, and Unlimiteds.

I think he called his Company "Miniatures in Gold"

Anyone have a contact for Tom??

There was a Tom from Washington that was a jewelry maker, but I forgot his last name. I think he may have raced stock. I do know he always did pickup boat duty at the kilos at Devil's Lake. I ran into him at the APBA Convention in Portland, I believe 1978, and he asked if I had some slides he could use for their club banquet. I sent him a carosel full. Later on, he and a friend came to visit and spent the night at my Dad' house and he gave me a gold prop tie clip as thanks for the use of the slides. It is a minature 3 bladed prop with a little diamond in the middle. I have tie clips that friends from Germany, Italy and Sweden gave me with their boat club emblems, but I alway wear the prop one. I will take a picture of it with my digital camera. It is a beautiful piece of work. If it is the same Tom, I would recommend him to any boat racer who would like boat racing jewelry.
