I received 2 castings of water valves that are designed to be hanger hooks. I decided it needs to have a base plate, so I whipped up a design in Illustrator and set up a file in XCS. I pre finished a 7mm piece of basswood with gold spray paint. After it dried well, it was brushed with gold acrylic paint.
