Find a nice tooth and want to do something special with it?

[JesperS]

So thrilled with this that I have to share.

So my kid found this tooth on one of our dives, which turns out to be a great mako:



He's off on vacation, and I thought since this is his first big tooth, it should be commemorated. Maybe turn it into a necklace? But I didn't want to do it cheap looking, so I asked a friend if they knew of a jeweler that works on teeth. Turns out a friend of theirs is a jeweler, and shark's teeth are one of his specialties!

So I contacted him, we consulted, and I am super thrilled with the end result:



I'm going to bring it with me when I pick kiddo up, and I'm hoping he likes it (I'm sure he will).

If you find yourself in need, send me a PM for the contact info.

Here is what I did with the first two teeth I found. The chunk of dead coral was found on my way back to the beach so I grabbed it. After some careful dremel work both teeth fit very nicely and it sits right in front of my monitor.

We're moving to NC next summer. Looking forward to some tooth hunting! We'll be just an hour, maybe 90 minutes from the river where a lot of fossil teeth are found.
I'd love to find a few teeth and get some gifts made for family and friends.

Tracy, are you ready for a dive that you will never forget? Contact me when you get settled in. The Cooper awaits the two of you.

That's exactly what we did this last XMas. Went over BIG!!! Coolest presents of the season.
