    Casting about for the proper reply..... 

    When I show my customer a piece of jewelry, whether it was
    fabricated or cast, if I just say "I designed that piece" that has
    always been enough to convey enough information for them to decide if
    they want to buy my work, or hire me for a commission. 

    I could not care less what the FTC says about the definition of
    handmade. To me, using a rolling mill,is like using a lathe, is like
    using a casting machine, is like using a flexshaft, is like
    using..... 

    Different processes using different equipment yield different
    results that allow different techniques to to be used for me to
    express myself, and that is what this "art " form is for me. Metals
    and gems are what I paint with to create beauty, and having used
    whatever means to achieve my goal is my brush.
