I plan to make several pendants because they are so much fun. My Swap partner can choose which one (or ones) they want.

#1 - Jade Tile with Bamboo Frame is done. I added a black paracord with double sliding lanyard knots so it is adjustable but I may put a better cord on it later.

Did a quick #3 - Hornbill Skull. I found a website that will let you upload a photo and it converts it to a 3D model through some sort of AI sorcery. I uploaded this photo of the skull of a Blyth's or Papuan Hornbill
